Some students may have to test through lunch, so sending your student to school with a lunch on their testing days may be beneficial. Please help your student get plenty of rest and a breakfast before they test. Also, please keep distractions or visitations to the school at a minimum during these testing days. We look forward to a successful week of testing, thank you!
