ISAT TESTING
**Just a reminder to Parents that ISAT testing begins next week. Please remember to get good rest the night before, and to have a nutritious breakfast the morning of testing. *Additionally, if absent these tests MUST be made up. Our testing window is narrow, so in order to avoid make-up testing, we ask when possible for appointments to be scheduled around the ISAT schedule for your student. A complete testing schedule, so you can easily know which days and times affect your children has been posted at:
