Milestones ELA is this week!
Milestones is our state assessment--in 6th and 7th grade, students are assessed in Language Arts and Mathematics. This week they will take the Language Arts asessments.
- 7th Grade will test on Tuesday and Wednesday
- 6th grade will test on Thursday and Friday
The testing time will end around 12:15 each day. Please do not check your child out before this time on any of the testing days as it disrupts the testing environment when we remove a child. Thank you!
Please do whatever you can to ensure your child gets a good night's rest and has a low stress week.
To ensure a high level of test security, students are discouraged from bringing electronic devices, such as smartphones, smartwatches, and tablets, on Milestones testing dates.
Students are not permitted to use, or bring into the testing environment, any electronic device that could allow them to access, retain, or transmit information (e.g., cell phone, smartphone, smartwatch, electronic recording device, camera, playback device, etc.) Students have been informed that possession or improper use of such devices during testing will result in disciplinary action in accordance with the system's student code of conduct and/or test invalidation.
