PSSA Testing starts Monday

Students in the 8th grade will be taking state PSSA tests this school year.        

PSSA TESTING:

April 3-6 8:00-10:30AM ELA  
 April 24-26  8:00-10:30AM MATH
 May 1 & 2 8:00-10:30AM SCIENCE


ABSENCES FROM SCHOOL ON TEST DAYS

Avoid scheduling doctor appointments, vacations or other out-of-school activities during testing times. Participation in PSSA exams is a state requirement.

Making up tests pulls students from their regular classes. As a result, they will miss valuable class time. It will be students' responsibility to make up any classwork missed.

Of course, if students are genuinely ill, they should stay at home and take the necessary time off to get well. Students will perform better on a test if they are healthy.


Students should read and review the Code of Conduct for Test Takers prior to starting the PSSA tests.
