CAASPP Testing

CAASPP testing for students in grades 3 through 5 is occurring right now. To help students do their best, please ensure they get a good night’s sleep, eat a healthy breakfast, and come to school on time. We kindly ask families to schedule any medical or other appointments outside of school hours or after May 15, when testing ends, as it is very important for students to be present every day during testing. Thank you for your support!
