All STAAR and EOC (End of Course for Algebra) testing this school year is online. To get all of the chrome books ready for testing which starts in May, we will be collecting students chrome books in the following manner. Please send charging cords with the students.
8th grade chrome books will be collected on Monday, April 25th in students American History Classes.
7th and 6th graders will have their chrome books collected on Friday, April 29th in their Texas History and ELA classes.
This will give us time to update, charge and be ready for testing. Some classes will use class sets of chrome books after testing. Students who will be attending summer school will get a chrome book assigned during summer school. We will be working with our Bridge students preparing for Summer Bridge individually. GT students will also keep their chrome books until Friday, April 29th. Students will be assigned chrome books at the start of the 2022-2023 school year again!
