Our curriculum presentation for parents is tonight. Among other things we will be discussing the PSSA exam. We will remind them about the testing schedule and the importance of attendance for those days. Also, since we will be discussing graduation requirements we will highlight the fact that achieving proficiency on the exam is a graduation requirement.
Our writing test books arrived the other day. We have inventoried them and stored them in a secure location. As we are preparing our list of juniors who will be taking the writing exam we are going over the list very carefully to ensure that we have noted any student who needs special accommodations. We have found that the writing exam is much easier to administer then the math, reading, and science. In preparing for giving the writing assessment it is a good opportunity to make sure will have are “ducks in a row” for the next wave of testing. One area that can be particularly confusing is identifying A typical juniors, those students who may start the years as 10th grade student and those students who may be in their second 11th grade year.
