May 30 - June 3, 2022 - NWEA Make Up Test
We are so very proud of GHA Scholars as they proved their dedication and confidence in their NWEA testing!
Each scholar had a goal to reach in their testing and was proud when they reached it and encouraged when they did not.
We are at 88% completion and of course, we are aiming for 100%.
Please ask your scholar what their scores were and share with them your enthusiasm for effort and growth.
We have 4 weeks left of this school year and so many amazing events are planned to celebrate the learning and successes of our scholars.
