Next Week
Our STAAR testing starts this week, and we have three tests.
All testing will be done on campus - remote students are asked to report by 7:45 am on their testing days to the front office. Students will need to wear a mask and will have their temperatures checked prior to entering the office. Students are allowed 4 hours to test and will be able to call for a ride as soon as they have completed testing. If you have any questions, please contact Mrs. Walker at kerri_walker@lagovista.txed.net.

On Wednesday, May 12th, all students will need to come to school for the test(even though it is a C Day). After testing is complete, the students will be released from school. Bus transportation will be provided.
All other test days are normal school day hours. Remote students will be able to leave campus after all testing is complete.
