LOCAL MEASURES TESTING – GRADES K-2

All students will begin with the writing assessment which will be administered throughout the next two weeks – testing in Spanish during the week of April 22 and testing in English during the week of April 29. Please ensure your children to get plenty of rest and enjoy a healthy breakfast before testing so they are able to do their very best on each assessment!
