Arrive to School On Time: Late Arrivals will not be permitted to enter their classrooms during the MSTEP test, as it would interrupt our students. Ensure your student arrives to school on time daily.
Prioritize Rest: Ensure they are getting a good night’s sleep (9–11 hours is recommended for elementary students!)
Fuel Up: A healthy, protein-rich breakfast helps sustain focus throughout the morning.
Keep it Positive: Encourage them to simply do their best and take their time.
Snack Donations for your Classroom: Chips, pretzels, granola bars, drink boxes.
