WCAS/SBA Schedule and Information

Families please help your student do their best by getting a good night’s sleep, eating a healthy breakfast, being on time and bringing a charged laptop.

State Assessments

State assessments are required for federal accountability and also provide a common measure of student progress at the school, district, and state levels. Our educators examine the results and use them to help determine which resources and supports are needed to close achievement gaps. State assessments are also the students’ first opportunity to fulfill a graduation pathway requirement.
