a note about state assessments
from Superintendent Paul Hoiriis:
The State of New Hampshire requires that all students take the SAS and SAT as part of our state accountability assessments. I would like to stress the importance of student participation in these assessments. The results of these assessments serve a number of purposes including providing our rating as a school on the State Department of Education website and informing us of the effectiveness of our instructional programming. Parents/guardians do have the right to opt their student out of testing, but given its importance to the district's and schools' accountability ratings, we hope that all student participate.
