Just as I was taken by surprise yesterday morning when trying to rouse DS for school to learn from him that he didn't need to be at school until 11:30 because of some testing. Tomorrow too, apparently.
An e-mail from the school about these schedule issues would be nice.
us too - we got a phone call reminding kids to show up for HSA testing, but no information that your child didn't have to come to school if he/she was not testing. Same for PARCC, even though that was a different grade.
I think the school doesn't actually want parents to know how much teaching time is wasted even when a student him/herself is not testing
