We want to wish our students the best of luck on the SC Ready assessment. They are well prepared for this task. Remind students that during the test, they should remain calm, stay focused, keep a positive attitude, and put forth their best efforts. Scholars should get a good night's sleep and eat a well-balanced breakfast each morning. To make sure Chromebooks are at school ready for testing, student devices and chargers will remain at school for the remainder of the school year.
