M-STEP Information- 5th graders take 4 M-STEP tests (ELA, Math, Science, and Social Studies) starting the week of April 18th-May 20th. We will take one assessment a week on each Wednesday. Please try to encourage good sleeping habits and eat a good breakfast before each test to help your child focus their best on their test. Please try to limit absences on these days, because making up these test sessions is difficult. I will allow SUGAR FREE GUM during these tests and will collect any gum donations ahead of time.

If they are playing and get warm, they are asked to tie their coat around their waist. As the weather starts to warm up, please be sure students are dressed appropriately.
