Upcoming Test Information for 8th
Grade Parents:
On February 21 and 22 all eighth grade
students will be taking their state mandated 8th Grade Writing
test. Both days students will write a short essay response to a prompt and
be allowed a suggested time of 50 minutes. Ms. Pierce has been working with
the 8th grade students so they do know what to expect and a
booklet has been sent home with them. Please make sure your students are
prepared for an important test on those days and try to avoid any
appointments which require them to be gone from school during 1st
and 2nd periods. A good night’s rest and a good breakfast prior
to testing are very important. The only make up allowed for the
writing is: If a student is not here on Wed., Feb. 21, both tests can be
taken on Thurs., Feb. 22.
Spring Testing Windows:
The state mandates all middle school
students take CRT (Criterion Referenced Tests) tests and high school
students take EOI (End of Instruction) tests. The window for these tests
follows. Parents will be informed of exact dates when more detailed
dates and times for Classen students are established. The tests are
generally administered during 1st and 2nd periods.
Again, please help your students avoid absences during their testing times.
