Many schools and school districts teach units in a different order than we do here at OLG School. If your student hasn't gone through their grade's geometry chapter or worked on theme yet (these are common end of the year units), don't worry!!! We completely understand these differences and are happy to communicate and work with you and your student to make sure the assessment is accurate and stress free.
