February 4-8 Updates

State Testing schedule update

Due to challenges with the state testing calendar windows provided by the Ohio Department of Education, we are compelled to revise the testing schedule we sent you last week.  We had hoped that all our elementary schools could test on the same schedule but due to constraints with devices, personnel, and spaces the Cassingham schedule will be slightly different than Montrose and Maryland. A lot of consideration was given to creating a schedule that is as positive as possible for students while still allowing us to operate within the time constraints given by the state. Administrators from each school in the district worked together this week to devise a schedule that will work for all tested grade levels. 

We sincerely apologize for any confusion or inconvenience this may cause you. However, we still ask that you try and avoid scheduling appointments on testing days if it all possible. Thank you for your patience and for partnering with us as we all work together to help our students show what they know.
