Hello! We are a few weeks into the second semester of the school year and this semester is shaping up to be as busy as the first. An item that keeps our school very busy this semester is SAT and CMAS testing.
We are excited to see your hard work pay dividends this spring and are in full swing of planning testing locations and coordinating proctors (your teachers) throughout the state. To most effectively do this, we need to know if you are planning to participate in state testing this April. Our goal as a school is to make this process as easy as possible for our families.
Here is what we know:
The CMAS test window is open April 14 - 24
All students in grades 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 11
Grades 3 - 8 complete ELA and Math CMAS
Grades 5, 8, and 11 will also complete Science CMAS
PSAT test dates will be April 15, 16, 17, 21, 22, 23, or 24

Why is Your Participation Important?
Our school is proud of what we do - it takes your results for us to continue to grow our school and curriculum.
Our students are the best! Over the years, test participation has been a very small percentage of our student population. Our goal is to have over 90% participation.
MVOLA students historically perform well on standardized tests…we want to know what you know.
What do we need from you?
Do you plan to test?
