Testing Tips:
Arrive at school on time each day; prior to 7:50 a.m.
Try to avoid appointments during the week of testing so that your child can complete his/her testing sessions.
Try to make sure that your child is present each day of testing to avoid having to do make-up testing.
Try to avoid screen time the week of testing prior to bedtime.
Make bedtime early so that your child can get a good night's rest.
Make sure your child gets a good night's sleep each night. If your child eats breakfast at school, have him/her there early to ensure getting to class on time.
Encourage your child to do his/her best each day because testing is very important.
