Family Update

Happy Friday, Davis Families!

Whether you are traveling or staying close to home, I hope you all enjoy spring break with your students. They have been working hard (and having some fun too!) and have earned their time off.

There won't be an update next week, so please make sure to note the important dates below. Updates will resume on Friday, April 10.

Have a great Spring Break!

Go Irish!

Once we return from Spring Break, we will be gearing up for the Ohio State Tests and the Spring MAP tests. The schedule is below. 8th Grade students that take high school courses at Scioto or Emerald Campus 1st period, will NOT attend those classes on testing days. Instead, they will report to Davis 1st period.

April 14 -- ELA Test, Day 1

April 15 -- ELA Test, Day 2

April 21 -- Math Test, Day 1

April 22 -- Math Test, Day 2

April 23 -- Science Test, 8th Grade Only

8th grade students who take courses at Scioto or Emerald Campus 1st period will not attend those classes on April 15 and 22. They will report to Davis instead.

MAP Test Window -- May 4-22 - exact testing days will be determined by grade level and will be communicated in the weeks to come.

Ways to help your student be well prepared on test day:

Help them with a positive mindset -- it makes all the difference to believe that they can do well on the test, and to try as hard as they can to prove all that they have learned and know.
Reminders to take their time, read each question completely, determine what the question is really asking.
Adequate sleep each night before a test.
Eat a healthy breakfast before testing.
