NWEA Training Due Feb 10th - Teachers Only
Below are the Virtual Training links for our upcoming NWEA Testing Window. School-wide NWEA testing begins Tuesday, February 14th. We will be doing a “Mock Run Through” on Monday, February 13th during Knight Hour in preparation for testing. All documents on the shared calendar have been updated for testing. We will not be meeting in person for NWEA training. Training will consist of watching the appropriate video(s) below and completing the attendance survey (Step 1 and Step 2).
Our goal is for everyone to have their training completed, test sessions created, and attendance survey signed no later than Friday, February 10th . If you are a new teacher (or existing teacher 😊), and need additional assistance after watching the videos below- please reach out to me and I will schedule a time to meet with you!
