MCAS Reminder

 

MCAS Reminder

Students will take their MCAS ELA Session I test tomorrow morning, Wednesday, May 5, and Session II on Thursday, May 6.  Please remind your student of the following:

What to bring:  laptop, charger, pencils or pens, and something to do after they have finished. (They won't be able to access their laptop or any other electronic device until they are dismissed from the testing room.)

When:  Arrive at school at the normal time.  Proceed directly to their assigned testing space.  Please be on time - it makes the day run smoother.  The testing period officially ends at 11:35 am tomorrow, Wednesday, May 5.  Buses will depart CCHS at 2:41 p.m.

Where:  Please report to the room assigned by last name (an email was sent to your student with their room assignments) unless their teacher has specifically told them to report to a different room.  

Some tips:

• Restart your computer the night before or earlier in the morning.
• Don't forget your charger.
• Bring a water bottle if desired.  

As a reminder, all current 10th graders (YOG 2023) will be required to take the MCAS.  Here are the relevant dates:

• May 5 and 6: ELA MCAS

• May 19 and 20: Math MCAS

• On the two Wednesday test dates (May 5 and 19) we do not need all busses due to the fact that only sophomores are in-person. Most students will finish before 2:41, and we welcome parent/guardians picking students up at CCHS when their student completes testing.

• On the two Thursday test dates (May 6 and May 20), sophomores will proceed to on-campus, in-person learning after testing is concluded.

• Lunch will be available on all testing days.

For all four testing dates, only grade 10 students will be on campus.  All grade 9, 11, and 12 students will be virtual and attend their classes via zoom from home.
