Cougar Connection

Dear Parents,

This week our students in grades 2-7 will begin taking the IOWA Test of Basic Skills. The results from this test help us to better serve your children. We use their scores to evaluate curriculum and create school and grade level areas of improvement. We want all of our children to have the opportunity to produce the results they are capable of. There are ways that you can help with this:

● Make sure your child gets plenty of rest during the testing period.

● Make sure your child eats a healthy breakfast each morning before the test.

● Help to minimize any disturbances to the testing process by not scheduling any appointments that will take your child out of the classroom during testing time.

● Make sure your child arrives at school on time and has number 2 pencils.

Please keep our students in your prayers.
