PSAT Testing
On Tuesday, April 9th, 8th grade students will take the PSAT 8/9. Testing will take place during Hours 1-4. Here are some test day reminders:
Get a good night’s rest the evening before!
Eat a healthy breakfast!
Arrive to school on time!
NO electronic devices! (Cell phones, smart watches, chromebooks, etc.)
NO food/drinks in testing rooms!
Pencils and calculators will be provided.
Please note that the PSAT 8/9 replaces the math and ELA portions of the M-STEP. 8th graders will still take the science and social studies portions of the M-STEP at the end of April.
Visit http://psat.org/8-9resources and http://collegeboard.org/ for more information and practice questions.
Important M-STEP Testing Information For All RMS Students & Parents
The M-STEP will assess student learning on Michigan’s standards in mathematics, english language arts (ELA), science, and social studies. This transition is necessary to meet state and federal education guidelines regarding assessment and accountability, as well as to ensure that our statewide assessments better reflect what students know and are able to do. *Please make sure students arrive with chromebooks fully charged and earbuds/headphones on testing days.
TESTING SCHEDULE FOR ROMEO MIDDLE SCHOOL:
8th Grade: April 25-26, Hours 2-3
6th & 7th Grade: April 29-30
Hours 1-3
Boaters Safety
Seventh grade students recently participated in a Boaters Safety course through the Macomb County Sheriff Marine Division. At the end of the course, students took a 50
question test over the material covered in the text and in class. If students passed with a 70% or better, they earned a boating safety certificate. Seven students earned 100%!
Students who received a perfect score of 100% are: Katie McKiernan, Owen Youngblood, Austin Finley, Lily Seamans, Kate Wenz, Claire Haverland, Alaina Kraemer.
These students will be invited to a field trip with the other 100 percenters throughout Macomb County. They will tour the Macomb County Sheriff Marine Division station, go out on the Sheriff's boats, tour the DNR next door and have lunch with the deputies.
Congratulations to all students who earned their certificates!
