Getting Ready for Testing
We are asking parents for a little help just before we start testing on Wednesday.
A couple things students will need to bring. We will have extras but not enough to supply everyone.
- #2 Pencils
- Basic 4 function calculator with square root (6th-8th)
To get students physically and mentally ready for testing.
- Students should have a good night rest throughout the testing weeks.
- Try to have students eat breakfast (or something equivalent) the morning of testing.

PLEASE BE ADVISED
It has become increasingly clear that many of our young middle school students are experimenting with Vape pens. In addition, students are also using essential oil diffusers and claiming they are Vape Pens. These are very hard to detect in schools and look very similar to regular pens and jump drives.
I have included multiple pictures to show you the different types of vape pens out there. As you can see, many can easily be disguised. Please talk to your children about making healthy choices with these items. Students can be under the impression that these are "safe" to use because of how they are advertised as being "safer" than smoking.
