May is assessment month! Our SBAC (Smarter Balanced Assessment Consortium) assessments for math and English will begin promptly on May 1st and continue through the 24th for students in grades 3-8. In addition to the SBAC assessments, we also have two new state assessments this year, the Vermont Science Assessment for grades 5 and 8, and the FitnessGram in Physical Education for grades 4 and 7. Please assist us by making every effort to assure that your child is not absent from school on a day of testing. MES ASSESSMENT SCHEDULE MAY 2018
