Hello ACS,
We will be having our week of testing April 18-20. During our testing days, we are only in school a half day; all students will be let out by lunch time. For Kindergarten and First grade students, their teachers do testing in short periods of time during the regular school day; therefore, they will not be in school at all during this week. I mention this now so that families’ can plan childcare accordingly if needed. We will be sending out a letter soon to let you know of our exact time schedule for testing days.
High School Plan Night: Don’t forget this important meeting on Monday, April 4, at 6:30 pm. This is for parents and students in grades 8 to 11. Also, if you have any ACT or PLAN test results that you would like further explanation or to see which classes would benefit you most, please bring these test results with you.
