ISTEP+ Part 2: You may begin.
Good luck on all of your exams this week. Show up each day on time. Listen to your proctors, manage your time, and do your best on every question! You don't get penalized for wrong guesses so don't leave anything blank!
To help with the testing schedule, every day will be a straight schedule day. We will not have any rolling periods. Every class will meet - but they will be shorter than normal. Some electives will be in the afternoon. Teachers will help you keep up with the changes.
