Dear Parents,
All students will be taking the PARCC (Partnership for Assessment of Readiness for College and
Careers) English Language Arts (ELA) and Math state assessments.
In addition, 8th graders will take Colorado Measure of Academic Success (CMAS) tests for science.
These tests will be an opportunity for students to demonstrate their ability to meet the Colorado State
Model Content Standards. Doing well on these tests is important for students and for the school. You
can help your child by making sure they are at school for testing and by taking time to do a few
important things at home:
Please be sure your child is to school on time. Rushing and worrying about being late could be
distracting.
Talk to your child about the tests. Children should know that it will test their skills in reading,
writing, and math, and for 8th graders, also their science skills.
Encourage your child to do his or her best but not worry about the test. Confident kids do
better on tests.
Remind your child to carefully follow directions, take time to select the most correct answer,
and check over work before turning it in. Good work habits will enhance student
performance.
Make sure your child gets a good nights sleep on the days before testing. Kids do better if they
are rested.
Be sure your child has a good, nourishing breakfast and has plans for a healthy lunch. Test
taking is hard work and requires lots of energy.
Ask your child about the testing at the end of each day. Your interest and support are
important.
Thank you for your support during testing time.
Sincerely,
Todd Bissell
Principal
