PTO meeting tonight. I'm going to provide them with the testing calendar for Writing, Math and Reading, and Science. Science will be a big change this year so I want to give them as much advance notice as possible. I also made them aware of the change in the testing calendar for next year. I want to make sure that parents are aware of this change as the plan their vacations for next year. I have discussed the PSSAs with the PTO on several occasions. Each year we utilize PTO volunteers to help out during the math and reading exams. They help monitor the halls and act as messengers. Their involvement works on two levels. On one level they are an added pair of hands, or more specifically legs. They free up teachers so we can place multiple proctors in a room. Secondly, by involving them in the testing process they can help spread the word to the community that we take this test seriously and we are doing everything we can to help them be successful.
Principal R.
