Mooberry Elementary
Smarter Balanced Testing
Mooberry plans to do state testing May 10-12th.
Here are a few tips for parents:
- Mark the testing dates on your calendar so you know in advance when those days are coming and can help your student arrive at school ready to test.
- Help your student take the practice test in advance (http://oaksportal.org/students/).
- Make sure your student gets a good night’s sleep and eats a healthy breakfast on test days.
- Encourage your student to do their best on the test and not to worry or become frustrated. Students do not “pass” or “fail” these tests. The tests simply measure current knowledge to help schools improve instruction.
- Contact your student’s teacher or the school principal with questions or concerns about testing.
