Important News For Parents of 7th Graders:
The Iowa Test of Basic Skills (ITBS) standardized achievement testing for 7th graders will begin on Tuesday, April 19, and continue through Thursday, April 28. On April 19-20, students will complete the Cognitive Abilities Test; April 26-28, students will complete the ITBS Complete Battery. On days in-between, students will be entering demographics on answer sheets and completing practice tests.
PLEASE try not to schedule outside appointments during testing. Making up tests requires students to be pulled from classes and miss out on valuable instructional time.
Also, it is very important for your child to get plenty of rest and eat a healthy breakfast. Finally, your child may bring a healthy snack on April 26-28 -the three rigorous days of testing, e.g. peanut butter/crackers, fruit, dry cereal or cereal bar, granola bar, etc. To prevent interrupting testing sessions, students must have snack with them before testing begins. NO candy and NO drinks will be permitted.
Thank you for your support and cooperation.
