STAAR Benchmarks
On Wednesday, February 1st and Thursday, February 2nd we will be taking practice STAAR Math & Reading tests. These practice tests will be given in the same way as actual testing day and in the same format. This will help us to give students exposure to the actual experience of taking the test as well as letting us know what their strengths are and where we need to focus our efforts over the next following months.
We ask that you please do not schedule any appointments during the morning of Feb 1st and 2nd.
After the tests, we will communicate with you how your child did and what we will be focusing on.
