Good evening, MSCS Family.

We’re preparing for TEST TIME 2022! As you know, the state requires all Tennessee public schools to administer TCAP, TN Ready, and/or EOC tests in person. Testing is April 18 through May 6, and it's important for all of us to communicate frequently and utilize all District platforms to inform families about the importance of the testing period.

With the pandemic magnifying the historic inequities and challenges in education, schools, and communities, we are more committed than ever to ensure our students have every opportunity to prepare for tests and SUCCEED.
