We will be taking our Benchmark test this week in Math, Reading and Science. Encourage your child to do their best and a good nights rest always helps too. We will try to mirror STAAR test week schedule (May 10-12). If your student brings their phone to school it will be collected and then returned to them after all testing for the day has finished. Make sure your student has a pair of wired headphones before the test on Tuesday.
