Parents and Guardians,
We hope you had a restful and enjoyable Spring Break! Tomorrow, we welcome our students back and begin the PSSA testing period. These assessments provide a snapshot of what your child has learned throughout the school year and are an important part of our academic calendar.
This week, we will be testing English Language Arts (ELA) on Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday.
To help your student do their best, please keep the following reminders in mind to help your student(s):
Get a good night’s sleep each night.
Eat a healthy breakfast either at home or at school.
Arrive at school on time to ensure a calm and focused start to the day.
Remind your child to do their best, take their time, and read each question carefully. Encourage them to choose the best answer by finding evidence in the passage.
Important: Cell phones and electronic devices (including iWatches, AirPods, and similar items) are not permitted in testing areas. Students will be required to turn in their devices at the start of the testing session and will receive them back once testing is complete. If a student is found with a device during the test, it will be confiscated immediately, and a security incident report will be filed with the Pennsylvania Department of Education. The student will also face disciplinary actions at the principal’s discretion.
We are incredibly proud of our students and the progress they have made this school year. We wish them the very best on the test and know they will do great!
Sincerely,
Mr. Correll, Principal
