This Week at KTES!
Let's get ready for Standardized Testing!
In accordance with federal law, students in grades 3 through 5 will participate in state testing, SC READY/SCPASS, in May. The assessments are in the areas of Reading, Writing and Math. Our 4th grade students only will also take Science. More information about these tests will be coming out over the course of the next month, including the procedures for our FMVA students. We want to go ahead and share our anticipated testing dates: May 18th – Reading, May 20th – Writing, May 25th – Science, and May 27th – Math. The tests are expected to take an hour and a half to two hours each day, however there is no time limit, so times vary. There is no need to stress about these assessments, our teachers and students have been working hard all year and will continue to spend time in class preparing. These tests help students demonstrate what they know and are able to do in comparison to their same age peers. Scores will be shared when we receive them next school year.
