CMAS Testing
What is CMAS (Colorado Measures of Academic Success)?
The Colorado Measures of Academic Success (CMAS) are the state’s common measurement of students’ progress at the end of the school year in English language arts, math, science and social studies.
Students in grades three through eight take the CMAS tests in math and English language arts. Students in 5th, 8th and 11th grade take the CMAS science assessments. A sampling of students in grades four, seven and eleven in about one-third of schools take the CMAS assessments in social studies.

How you can help your child on test days!
Many teachers report that students who don't do well on tests haven't gotten enough sleep, and haven't eaten breakfast on the morning of the test. Doing both of these things will ensure that your child is working at full capacity.
Remain Positive
Staying calm will help your child stay calm. If he/she gets nervous about the test or is likely to experience anxiety during the test, help him/her practice some relaxation techniques that he/she can try once he's/she's taking the test.
Good Attendance
Help your child get to school on time each day of testing. Since many times, testing begins at the beginning of the day, it is important your child arrives on time. Once testing sessions have begun, your child will not be able to join their class until testing is over. This means that they will have to make up that testing session at a later time.
Appointments
We respectfully ask that you please schedule appointments outside of school hours during CMAS testing days if at all possible.
