Next Generation Assessment
This week your child will be taking the Next Generation Assessment (PARCC and AIR). The Next Generation Assessment will be computer-based and students will be tested on three areas, English Language Arts (ELA), Mathematics, and Science. Students will be taking both Performance-Based Assessment (PBA) and End of Year Assessment (EOY). Letters on the PBA testing dates were sent home with students last week. Please referrer to the letter to know when your child will be testing. By working together we can make your child’s test experience positive and successful. Below are some resources for math testing practice:
Lumos Learning is a website that has standard-based questions for students to practice.

Here is a website that has fun PARCC games for students to practice. The PARCC games review content learned throughout the year.

The students have worked very hard throughout the year and I know each student will do their very best!
