Spring Testing<\/strong> – We will begin testing soon after break. Students should continue to try to complete as many skills as they can in IXL. There is also a MSTEP practice website<\/a>, they can use this to practice the interface and see the types of questions they will see. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

M-STEP<\/strong> – Testing window opens up on April 10th-May 5th – I don’t have the exact dates of testing yet. But I highly advise that students are not fasting while they are trying to complete their spring testing. This could greatly affect their ability to do well on the test.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Teacher Cadet <\/strong>– Our teacher cadet Noor finished her time with us on Thursday before break and we will now have time with her twin sister Malak. The children enjoyed working Noor and I’m sure Malak will be equally delightful.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
