In order to allow students the required amount of time for the testing, student lunch times will change on the days of the test. Please click on the modified lunch schedule posted below to determine when your child will be eating lunch.

We would greatly appreciate your help with the testing process. Please, as always, make sure your child has a good night’s rest and a well-balanced breakfast. Please continue to provide a daily, healthy snack for your child. If at all possible, do not schedule outside appointments for your child during this time period, April 24-May3, 2012.

It is imperative that your child arrives at school by 9:05 a.m. every day. Testing will begin immediately after lunch count is collected and restroom breaks given. Children will not be permitted to enter the classroom once the testing process has begun. Testing will conclude no later than Noon each day.
