Winter Diagnostic Window Dec. 5th to Dec. 16th

All grade levels will participate in iReady Reading and Math Diagnostic and AIMS web Reading testing this week. The goal is for all students to take 2 of the three assessments this week and one at the beginning of next week. Absent students should be tested as soon as possible. Remind the students to do their best and the rest will work itself out. We know that everyone has worked so hard to set the students up for success and that is all we ask for!
