STAAR Testing Next Week
STAAR testing continues next week for our 5th graders. See the remaining testing days below:
- Tuesday, April 16th - 5th graders will take the Science STAAR test.
- Tuesday, April 23rd - 3rd, 4th, & 5th graders will take the Math STAAR test.
Testing will take place all over the building. Due to the secure testing environment, we will not be able to have visitors in the building on testing days.
If you child will be taking the STAAR test, here are some ways you can help your child be successful on these important tests:
- Cell Phones or Smart Watches, including FitBits, must be taken up before the test begins. Electronic devices will be kept in a secure place, however, it is best if students leave their cell phones at home during testing days. If you need to get a message to your child, please call the office.
- Please avoid scheduling appointments on testing days.
- Please make sure your child gets a good night's sleep and has a good, hearty breakfast before school. Breakfast will also be provided in the classroom as usual.
- It is very important that all students are present and arrive at school on time on testing days. This will ensure they have time to get settled and begin their test promptly.
- Students should bring a water bottle from home.
- Students will eat sack lunches in their classrooms, and they have all day to complete the test.
