Hi Woolie Families,

We wanted to remind you about upcoming MCAS testing dates.   It is a requirement that students will need a school issued device to test. 

Grade 8  stll has 3 remaining tests for the year:
Science - Today 4/28 and tomorrow 4/29
Math - May 5/6
Civics - May 26/27

Grade 7 has 1 remaining test this year:
Math - May 5/6

Helpful reminders: 

• Please make sure students come to school with a device fully charged so it is at 100% battery for both days of testing.

• It will be helpful for students to log out and shut down their Chromebooks the day before testing. This allows any updates to be processed.

• MCAS testing rooms will be posted in the hallways. Testing locations will be the same on both Tuesday and Wednesday. Attendance will be taken in the testing rooms. 

• MCAS testing is scheduled for the first three blocks of the day. Students are allowed additional time if they do not finish. Students must complete testing by 2:00pm.

• If your student is still testing at lunchtime, we will make sure that they have the opportunity to go get lunch and eat in the testing room.

• If your student is absent from school for any reason on one of the testing days,  please plan for them to take the missed session during the make-up session when they return to school.

• Make sure students go to bed early on the nights before MCAS 

• Please make sure that students eat a good breakfast on the morning of MCAS. Breakfast is available in the cafeteria.

• During testing, students will not have access to phones, smartwatches, personal devices, Airpods/earbuds, etc.  

Thank you for your cooperation and understanding!
