WIDA Testing
February 1st marks the halfway point of the WIDA testing window! Students have been doing an excellent job of putting forth their best effort and showing the all of the skills they have practiced. If your student has not tested yet, please remind them to do the best they can! If you are unsure of when their test is, please feel free to reach out to your school's ELL teacher. We will officially be done with testing on February 24.
