Students in grades 3 through 5 across our state will take the SCPASS test (South Carolina Palmetto Assessment of State Standards) on March 18th and March 19th, in the area of Writing. Testing on Day 1 will consist of an extended writing prompt and Day 2 will consist of multiple-choice questions. It is very important that students are in school and on time to school on these two testing days. We ask that you schedule doctor's appointments and other out-of-school functions on days other than these testing days. SCPASS is an untimed test and therefore, students will have as much time during the school day to complete their writing assessments. Please make sure your child gets plenty of rest the night before testing and eats a good breakfast. And finally, during testing students may not be in possession of any electronic device(s) that can be used for communicating, timing, creating images, or storing images. These devices will be collected by the testing administrator and returned after each test session has been completed. Thank you in advance for your understanding and cooperation.
