Assessment Day Information:
As you come for assessment day on Friday, please use the following procedures to ensure that students are able to complete the assessment in a quiet and calm atmosphere:
- Please drop off your student at the assigned time in their classroom
- Parents/Guardians and siblings are asked to wait in the Learning Commons. We will have chairs set up to accommodate everyone. Please do not wait in the hallway pods as the noise level can be disruptive to the assessment process.
- Students will meet parents/guardians in the Learning Commons at the completion of their assessment.
- Assessment information will be shared with you at your student's upcoming conference.
