Wildcat families,
Our STAR Testing window is officially beginning, and we are excited for our students to show what they know! STAR Reading and Math assessments provide important information that helps us measure student growth, identify strengths and areas for support, guide instructional decisions, and celebrate the progress our students are making throughout the year.
Because of this, it is extremely important that students are at school and on time for testing. Every student's effort matters!
✅ Get a good night's sleep
✅ Eat a healthy breakfast
✅ Arrive at school on time
✅ Bring a positive attitude and do your best
Our teachers will be ready to encourage and motivate students with plenty of Wildcat pride before testing begins. We want every student to walk into the assessment feeling confident and prepared to succeed!
