* Please ensure students arrive at school on time, as testing will begin promptly.

* Have your student eat a healthy breakfast before coming to school.
Remind them to do their best and take their time during the test. Your support helps students feel confident and prepared. Thank you for partnering with us to make this a successful testing week.
