Each year, our students in grades 3, 4, and 5 take the state MEAP Tests.  This test also takes place in grades 6-7 and grade 9.  All MEAP testing will take place on mandated days this year.  The schedule is posted below.

Please avoid scheduling appointments on testing days.  If your child leaves prior to finishing a test, the test will be invalidated and the test will have to be retaken on the mandated re-test days.

We would like to ask all parents to make sure your child gets plenty of rest and a healthy breakfast.  We encourage each child to put forth their best effort on this test.  The information we receive helps us to re-adjust our instruction and it also is used to calculate a grade for our overall school performance in academics.

The dates we will be taking the Meap test:

Tuesday: October 13  -Reading

Thursday: October 15 -Reading

Tuesday: October 20 -Math

Thursday: October 22 -Writing

There are makeup days scheduled during these weeks if your child is sick.  However, we encourage you to not schedule appointments on Meap days.  We do not want your child to take part of a test and then have to start it over again on another day.

Thanks for your help!
