Second round of STAAR testing will begin the second week in May. Please refer to the following testing schedule:   May 9: 6^th and 7^th grade Mathematics; May 10: 6^th and 7^th grade Reading, May 11: 8^th Science; May 12: 8^th grade Social Studies. 8^th grade students who are not successful on the STAAR tests will have one additional opportunity before the end of the spring semester on May 9 and May 10 and one last opportunity on June 21 and June 22 to retest and pass STAAR. 8^th grade students who do not pass STAAR on the second administration will be required to enroll in summer school to prepare for the 3^rd and final administration of STAAR. If a decision is made not to enroll and successfully complete this requirement, then they will be retained. Again, test security measures will be in place on test days to limit student access to cell phones during testing. It is suggested that students leave cell phones at home on the days of testing. If you choose to allow your child to bring a phone, students must submit their cell phones that are turned off to their test administrators on the day of testing. Cell phones will be placed in an individual zip lock bag and returned to each student as soon as all testing has been completed for the day. Also, due to the security measures in place on test days, we will not allow any guests on campus.

TEA has scheduled the Algebra EOC (End of Course) test for the week of May 2-6.
