Milestone EOC/Final Exam
Private School students take the course final on July 13th. Public School Students take the Milestone EOC at the direction of their school facilitator. If you do not know the date, check in with your guidance counselor now. Econ grades post as incomplete until the Milestone EOC is taken and reported to GAVS.
Review Materials and Study Guides
Please go through course news carefully to locate your Milestone and Final Exam study materials.
Please Note: July 14th is an important date in History and for you!
If you need study materials or lessons from our course after July 14th, you must capture them and save them. You will not have access to your course after July 14th. If your Milestone EOC is after July 14th you will need to download your review materials. You will still have access to USATESTPREP and our OER resources. You can save the link to this newsletter too.
Benchmark Tests on USATESTPREP
The Benchmark Tests are predictors of your success on the Milestone EOC and will diagnose items for restudy. You may use your high score for one test or project replacement opportunity. Take a screen shot of your score report. It should show your name and score clearly. Submit it to the Remediation Dropbox for the Module where you need the replacement grade.
