Tomorrow we have NWEA testing for MATH.  Today we did reading and most students made a lot of improvement.  The ones who did not make an improvement in their score, rushed and did not take their time.  Please discuss with your child that this is a TEST not a computer game and they need to know what they know!!  This test is one of many pieces of information that we look at to see if they are ready for 1st grade or if they need another year of kindergarten.

Thank you for your support,

Michelle Rawson
