All 4th Grade students will participate in a 45-minute math fluency test on 4/21. This test is a great opportunity to practice for the end of year test in May. The test is part of a math research study for Educational Testing Service (ETS). No individual student information will be collected. Students will need their laptops and chargers at school on 4/19 to get ready for the test. We have a great partnership with ETS and if you have any questions at all, don't hesitate to call Mrs. Zeigler at KES.
