Important EOG Information:
- Breakfast- Teachers, please send Gr. 3-5 students how may be hungry to breakfast to breakfast before 7:55. We will pay for students who are hungry and need a breakfast.
- Testing Locations- We will be testing all over the building (gym, Specials rooms, Computer Labs, Specialists' rooms, Trailers, etc). Please refrain from calling other rooms on the gray phones during testing. Also if your class needs to move through the hallway they must do so in absolute silence.
- Lunch Times- We will follow the typical lunch schedule except 1st Grade and 4th Grade will switch lunch times to give the 4th graders more time to finish their assessments.

- Lunch Coverage- Unfortunately we will not be able to provide lunch coverage on the 25th and 30th because our IAs will most likely be tied up with testing groups most of the day. We are asking all homeroom teachers to stay with their class during lunch or bring their class back to the room.
- Recess- We will be testing all over the building and in the mobile units so until we announce that testing is complete for the day please only use the ballfield on the corner of Lystra and Jack Bennett on the 25th and 30th.
- Specials- Specials may be able to resume after testing is complete. We will notify everyone of the plan based on when students finish testing.
