ONE WEEK DOWN!
You made it through your first week of TCAPs! We are so proud of you! One more week to go! You've got this! You will have tests on Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday.
Earn a CHIS TCAP Dance Ticket!
We are going to celebrate doing our best on TCAP with a school dance! Imagine dancing with your friends, and your teachers or just hanging out with some freetime! It’s up to your teacher’s discretion on whether you will attend. Teachers will be looking for the following:
Be Prepared:
Be on time at 7:50 AM each morning!
Get a good night’s sleep so that you can be alert!
Eat a good breakfast each day.
Bring number two pencils. 6th Grade, make sure your Chromebook is charged!
Put Forth Your Best Effort!
Use the full time of testing.
Go back and double check answers.
Keep your head up and stay alert.
Use the good test taking skills you have learned.
Follow Directions:
Listen to directions the first time they are given.
Think before you act. Remember the specific directions the teacher gave you.
Good Behavior:
Be quiet during testing and do not distract others.
Be quiet in the hallways during breaks.

Review of Essential 55
- Answer all written questions with a complete sentence.
- When we are in transition from one subject to the other, the change will be swift, quiet, and orderly. We should be consistently able to turn from one book to another, complete with all homework and necessary materials, as quickly as possible. The opportune amount of time to spend in transition should be less than ten seconds, and we will work toward a goal of seven seconds.
- You will make every effort to be as organized as possible.
Congratulations!
Sophia and Harvey
I am a 5th grader at CHIS and a barrel racer. Harvey and I qualified two years in a row for NBHA World Finals in Perry, GA! I have been riding horses since I was little and barrel racing for the last three years. This year, I have upgraded to a faster and bigger horse named Kitty. It is a lot of practice and hard work, but I love it!
