The students continue to work hard demonstrating what they know through both testing and completion of asynchronous review assignments. Just a reminder that next week we will continue with SOL test administration on Tuesdays and Wednesdays. Any student that is not participating in the SOL will be assigned asynchronous work for both Tuesday and Wednesday. Students will be expected to complete the asynchronous work by 1:00 each day in order to be marked as “present.” There will not be a class Teams meeting on either day as we administer the state tests to our in person and virtual students. Students will log into their resource on Tuesday at 12:00.
Reminders for students participating in SOL testing at School:
- Arrive on time – school begins at 8:00
- Students will need their fully charged laptop during testing
- It would also be beneficial to have a couple of pencils
- Scratch paper will be provided
- Please bring a book or two from home for after testing
- Lunch: Students will eat lunch in the classroom each day of testing
