If registered, both you and your student should have received an email with their assigned testing date, along with important details regarding transportation, payment (for those retaking missed sections), and location.

All EL (English Learner) students from Sturgis West will be taking the ACCESS for ELs language proficiency test from February 2-4.
The ACCESS is administered each year to all students classified as ELs throughout the state of Massachusetts to provide a standardized measure of academic language proficiency for EL students.
Sturgis West will present Baby Blue - written by current Sturgis West Junior Robbie Rotondi. This play is a story reflecting real-world struggles of a young man finding his way and battling the challenges of his everyday world and internal struggles. We want to let you know in advance that this play includes strong language and depicts characters navigating mental health challenges and thoughts of suicide. We believe these topics are vital to discuss, but we understand they can be difficult. Recommended for ages 14+ and audience discretion is advised.
