This week I will be administering Benchmark exams in Math and Language Arts. We give these exams in the beginning, middle, and end of each school year to measure individual student growth in various concepts. There is no way to study for these exams but students should come to school well rested and ready to concentrate. The tests are divided into sections and there will be a short testing time each day. The rest of our classroom lessons and workload this week will be less than usual.
