- The SOLs roll-on here at WMS — with both TESTING and MAKE-UP testing on the agenda. Here’s the breakdown for May 29th…
.
We will be following Team Time Bell Schedule ‘B’ today. 8th graders on the Cavaliers and Hokies teams are taking the Math SOL — which begins immediately following the Morning Announcements at 8 a.m. Plus, there will be MAKE-UP testing for 7th graders in the following subjects: Math 6, Math 8, and Algebra 1. 7th graders who need to take these tests will be notified by their TA teachers this morning, and should report to the Library at 8:30 — once again, the make-up tests begin at 8:30.
.
Test-takers are reminded that you may ONLY bring the following items: your fully-charged iPad, a pencil or pen, a book to read, and earbuds ONLY if you have an approved audio accommodation for the test. You may NOT bring: backpacks or cinch sacks; any other electronic devices such as phones, watches, game consoles and the like; nor any water or snacks. And of course, there is zero tolerance for CHEATING.
.
And for all those students who are NOT testing — please remember to be quiet and respectful in the halls. Teachers will be monitoring the hallways to ensure that there are no disruptions. Any other questions or concerns? Check with your teachers or grade level counselors. Good luck on your SOLs, wolves!
. - The WMS Library will be CLOSED today during SOL testing hours. But it WILL be open after school. So be sure to stop by this afternoon and get yourself something good to read for after your SOL!
. - This is a reminder for all 8th grade Patriots and Rams: you are NOT testing today, but should instead report to your designated classrooms for team time this morning, where you’ll be screening the Academy Award nominated film — Hidden Figures. The movie will begin promptly at 8:15, so don’t be late!
. - And now for a “Transportation Tip” about riding the LATE bus. If you’re ever planning to take the LATE BUS after school — you MUST have a signed bus pass for both ASP1 and 2. If you do not have a pass — you will NOT be allowed to ride the late bus. Again — the pass must be SIGNED for both ASP1 and 2 in order to ride the Late Bus. See your grade-level administrator with any questions.
. - And finally today — as we prepare to embark on another day of SOL testing, we’ve got an important message for you… from MOM and DAD. Check it out!!
