We are practicing for the FSA! You will see packets coming home without a grade for ELA/Reading and Math. Those packets are samples of items that will be tested on both tests. The idea is to practice a bit at a time and get familiar with the actual "look" of the test items.

FSA DATES-
FSA Reading: April 6th and 7th
FSA Math: May 5th and 6th
Important information: They need a good nights rest, healthy breakfast and most importantly encouragement. If you child is late they will not be permitted to take the test that day.
