Where do students take the MCAs?
Where do students take the MCAs?
Our goal with testing is to make it as least disruptive as possible and for students to test in an environment that is familiar to them.
Students in grade 10 will take the Reading MCA in their English class (AP Lit or English 10).
Students in grade 11 will take the Math MCA in their Social Studies classes (IB History or World Studies). This may seem odd, but it is because the majority of our math classes are mixed-grade and our Social Studies classes are determined by grade-level.
Students enrolled in Biology or IB Bio, Yr 1 will take the Science MCA in their Biology class.
*If students are absent on 3/12 or 3/13 or do not complete the MCA test on 3/12 and 3/13, Washburn will run makeups in late March or April. They will find out via their English, Social Studies, or Biology teacher.
