HS End-of-Year Testing Information

As we approach the end of the semester, we want to inform you about the upcoming End-of-Course (EOC) testing, ACT testing, and the preparation required to ensure our students perform to the best of their abilities. EOC exams assess students' understanding of key subject areas and are an essential component of their academic progress. Additionally, juniors will be taking the ACT test. To help students succeed, it is important they dedicate time to review material, seek assistance if needed, and maintain a balanced routine. We encourage you to support your child by ensuring they have a quiet space for study, proper rest, and healthy meals. If possible, please try to ensure your student is present during testing time. We are confident that with focused preparation and parental support, our students will do their best on these important assessments.
