Reminders for MCAS Testing for Grades 3, 8 & 10 Next Week; Zoom Meeting March 25 for Community Feedback session about district
Dear Malden Public Schools Parents and Caregivers,
I’m reaching out to remind you about two important events happening next week.
First, MCAS (Massachusetts Comprehensive Assessment System) testing begins in our district next week and will continue through May. Below are some things to keep in mind during MCAS testing season:
—MCAS is a set of statewide tests that is required by law for students in grades 3-8 and grade 10. MCAS is an extremely important measure of students’ achievement and their readiness for the future.
—You can see detailed schedule information for MCAS by school, grade level, and test subject on our website at maldenps.org/mcas-testing.
—To help your student succeed on these tests, please make sure they get a good night’s sleep, eat a healthy breakfast, and arrive on time or early to school on the day of the test, prepared to do their very best!
Second, I will be hosting another Superintendent’s Feedback Session on Zoom on Tuesday, March 25 from 6:00 p.m. to 7:30 p.m.
I would love for you to join me for this virtual session and share your feedback about how to improve our school district. The session will have live simultaneous translation available in Portuguese, Spanish, Haitian Creole, Chinese, and Arabic.
