Students in grades 6-12 will be taking the NDA+ test this week. The NDA+ is a new assessment that we started this year. It provides a measure of how well students are performing in reading and math. The test is designed for students to show what they know and what they can do at three checkpoints during a school year. Please encourage students to try their best so that parents and teachers can track their progress and support students in areas where they may need more help. Parents, please support your child by making sure they get a good night's sleep the night before and eat a healthy breakfast on the day of testing. If you have any questions, please reach out to Mr. Routledge or Mr. Rauschenberger. We appreciate your support! Schedule: Tuesday - 6th and 7th grade Wednesday - 8th and 9th grade Thursday - 10-12th grade and makeups
