CAASPP Testing is Coming | Read the Following w/ Your Child
Be sure to be rested and eat a healthy breakfast/Nutrition snack each day of testing
All electronic devices (cell phones) must be entirely powered down (turned off) and put away--NO EXCEPTIONS
All backpacks must be stored completely out of the way or along the walls of the room
Restroom breaks will only be provided on an as needed basis, one student at a time (students may need to be escorted by Campus Supervisors/Admin)
Students may only use the secure browser that is already on the iPad to access the testing site
Students may NOT visit any other site or any other application during the testing session
During testing, students should not pause test for more than 15 minutes (if paused longer than this, they run the risk of being moved along to the next section even if all questions on previous section were not answered)
Once a student is finished testing, he or she may ONLY read a book or magazine silently--students may NOT work on any assignments on the iPad
There is no photography of any kind, screenshots or otherwise, allowed during testing
Remember to bring a snack and water each day
Your iPad must be fully charged each day and you must bring your earbuds each day (wireless earbuds are NOT acceptable)
Testing Schedule (4/25 - 5/5)
iPad Chargers
TUSD will not accept after-market chargers as a replacement. However, for CAASPP testing your Falcon is responsible to bring their iPad fully charged. As mentioned above, testing will occur from April 25 to May 5th.
Please work with your Falcon to ensure they report to school every day with a fully charged iPad.
