Helpful Testing Info
Make sure your child gets a good night's sleep and eats a healthy breakfast
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.
Make sure your child is prepared
We do provide headphones for the test and scratchpaper for the test, please assist us by making sure your chiild has a pencil and eraser. Students are encouraged to bring their OWN headphones to use dutring the test, wireless headphones will NOT work. Students who are sick will be allowed to make it up.
Remain positive
Staying calm will help your child stay calm. If she gets nervous about the test or is likely to experience anxiety during the test, help her practice some relaxation techniques that she can try once she's taking the test
