NWEA spring testing in the computer lab for
grades 3, 4, and 5 are scheduled this month. All students in grades 3, 4, and 5
must participate in the NWEA testing. Testing is typically done in the
morning only, so it is critical that students are here on
time. If a student is late and testing has begun they will need to
participate in a scheduled makeup test. |
