If you are looking for a night to come out and support alot of your students, this evening would be a good one!
Finals Schedule

December 20th- Related Arts
NWEA
For NWEA students will be testing with one of their four core teachers or special ed teacher. Teachers will have their NE plus NE students from any related arts teacher from their team. We are also going to have teachers in charge of the testing and will run it from their laptop, rather than being ran from the office. This will help us in preparing for ILearn testing format.
On December 3rd during collaboration I will walk everyone through how to set up their test sessions, troubleshooting during the test, and show some NWEA testing videos.
The plan is to do a two hour delay day to test, followed by a day where we switch NE and 1st period. We would do this three times. So the schedule would look like this:
December 5th- Reading Test- Two hour delay schedule
- Related Arts teachers will be rotating around classrooms to help proctor tests
December 6th- Reading Test- Switch NE and 1st period
- Day will be used to allow students to finish testing or start the test if they missed the day before
- Students that are done testing will be split into the related arts teachers classrooms. Or a core teacher’s classroom that everyone is done testing
December 7th- Math Test- Two hour delay schedule
- Related Arts teachers will be rotating around classrooms to help proctor tests
December 11th- Math Test- Switch NE and 1st period
- Day will be used to allow students to finish testing or start the test if they missed the day before
- Students that are done testing will be split into the related arts teachers classrooms. Or a core teacher’s classroom that everyone is done testing
December 12th- Language Test- Two hour delay schedule
- Related Arts teachers will be rotating around classrooms to help proctor tests
December 13th- Language Test- Switch NE and 1st period
- Day will be used to allow students to finish testing or start the test if they missed the day before
- Students that are done testing will be split into the related arts teachers classrooms. Or a core teacher’s classroom that everyone is done testing
The additional day after each test day would really help us with getting make-ups completed and not pulling kids from their 6th period or having to test 50-75 kids at one time in the cafeteria.
Clubs during NE
Club sponsors should be updating the calendar for any of their meetings at least a week in advance.
