March 8th is the ATLAS Writing exam
Grades 7-10 students. ATLAS is Arkansas's new standardized assessment platform that replaces Aspire. It is important that students arrive prepared to do their best: be on time (no later than 8:30 am), fueled with a good breakfast and a good night's sleep. ATLAS has four components. AAA is choosing to test different components on different days to give students the most opportunities to do their best on each test. The English, Science, and Math ATLAS Summatives will be scheduled in May.
