Pretest/Posttest

If you are checking PowerSchool,  you will notice a pretest grade for our first unit. A pretest sets the baseline for what the students already know before being taught the unit. The posttest will show how much they have learned. We are looking for growth, a higher score on the posttest. The pretest does not count towards the grade.

September 12-16

Students will need their math materials on Monday. They need to bring a 1 1/2 inch binder, a spiral notebook, and 5 dividers. Please make sure that your child has pencils too, please.
