AASA Writing Test for Grades 3-5 is next Wednesday! How can you help?

All 3rd-5th grade students will take the new AASA writing assessment. You may remember we took a practice test in January to help student know what the new test format would be like.

Here is how you can help:

Optimize brain power by ensuring your child is well rested and has a good breakfast.

Relax and remain positive as the best test takers are confident, committed and at ease.

If you would like specific test information, you can find all kinds of resources at the AZ Dept. of Education.
