Fifth Grade ELA MCAS

This week our Fourth grade took the ELA MCAS. It was very clear that each child took their time and put forth their best effort.  Next week our fifth grade students will be taking the ELA MCAS on Monday, April 8 and Tuesday, April 9. Please see below for the remaining dates for grade 3-5 MCAS assessments.  To assure your children are at their best for the assessment make sure they get a good night sleep and eat a healthy breakfast. Please make sure to have your students to school by 8:30.  If a student that is taking the MCAS is late they will have to take the assessment on a make up day.
