"Practice STAAR Testing"
Dear Parents and Guardians,
This week, we will begin our annual process of administering practice STAAR tests for 7th Grade Writing. As outlined in our LearnSBISD Plan and in alignment with Texas Education Agency guidance, these tests are limited to on-site administration.
These tests provide valuable information about how your child is progressing academically. Teachers use this information to plan for small group instruction, adjust lesson delivery, and determine where additional supports are needed.
7th Grade virtual learners are requested to come to campus on Tuesday, February 9th. Tests will be administered in classrooms and the multi-purpose room. Temperatures will be taken upon arrival, and all other LearnSBISD health and safety protocols will be in place.
Should you require special arrangements for your child, please do not hesitate to reach out.
Your igKNIGHTed Principal,
Dr. HP Hyder, III
