Dear RMS Parents. Reminder: Regular ACT Aspire Assessments will conclude on Wednesday. On Tuesday, we have Writing and on Wednesday, we will have the English Assessment. Please review the link for make-up testing below. If your child needs to make-up a test and they are virtual, please plan to have your child present at school during the designated testing time. It is critical that you ask your child if they have taken all of the assessments thus far (3) Reading, Science, and Math. The Reading Assessment will be on Tuesday afternoon beginning at 12:30 until 2:15pm. You may pick your child up at the conclusion of the test. Again, refer to the link to ensure your child is present for any make-up assessments. Thanks for your cooperation and attention to this information.
