State Testing Information: Juniors will participate in state-mandated testing on April 4th (ACT), 5th (US History), & 6th (Science). These tests are required for graduation. The Warehouse bus will leave campus at 8:am sharp to transport students. If students drive, they may drive directly to the Warehouse on testing days. Student testers will be permitted to eat breakfast at 7:30 in the cafeteria on test days. It is important that they arrive on time. All cellular and smart devices will be collected when students enter the Warehouse. They will not be permitted access to these devices until testing is completed. The elementary and middle school grade-level testing window is scheduled for April 17 - May 2. Helping Your Student Prepare 
There are a number of ways that you can support your student’s learning habits on a daily basis that will help him or her be more prepared when it is time to be tested. 
 Here are some ideas for your student to think about before taking a test. * Make sure that your student has taken the practice tests offered so that they are familiar with the platforms and tools available. * Make sure your student gets plenty of rest and has a well-balanced diet. * Reassure your student that the test is just one opportunity to show what he or she knows. Classwork, projects, and other tests also show how much a student has learned throughout the year. Please take time to review the grade level testing guides for parents and students below: 11th grade : https://bit.ly/howe11th 8th grade: https://bit.ly/howe8th 7th grade: https://bit.ly/howe7th 6th grade: https://bit.ly/howe6th 5th grade: https://bit.ly/howe5th 4th grade: https://bit.ly/howe4th 3rd grade: https://bit.ly/howe3rd
