On 8th grade testing dates for MATH and READING (Thursday May 19th, Tuesday May 24th),
the rotating bell schedule above will be followed; lunch times will be swapped between 6th and 8th grade lunches.
Seventh grade will operate on a normal, unaffected rotating day schedule.
Adjustments to the bell schedule are minimally disruptive and may include some lunch time alterations.
These changes are made to accommodate state-mandated testing protocols
and regulations related to the standardized administration of SOL tests.
Thank you for your cooperation.
