You will have at least 3 tests each 6 weeks. We had to add smaller tests, more frequently to the calender. The Benchmark is not a test. We use it as a daily grade. |
All video log assignments must be signed by a guardian if done at home. Make sure you review all information on this site before a test. Use the study cards at the end of each unit to prepare for tests.
20 years of teaching with the best district in Texas!
