Note to Parents: |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
All 10th grade students must take the CST Life
Science test, whether they are |
|
|
|
enrolled in a science course or not. Those students taking biology,
chemistry, physics or |
|
|
earth science must also
take the end-of-course science test, scheduled for Day II of testing. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Only students enrolled in World History need to take the end-of-course
exam scheduled for Day I |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Because of the large amount of required testing in 10th grade, students
may choose |
|
|
to spread their testing over three to four days, using the available
make-up days as well. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
All tests for tenth grade are untimed. We have followed the recommended
time frames |
|
|
for completion of each test; however, from past experience we find many
students use significantly |
|
less time than allotted, but may certainly use all or more time if
needed. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Please plan on returning to the test site 30-60 minutes before the last
test of the day |
|
|
is scheduled to end just in case your child finishes early. |
|
|
|
|
|
Students opting for more than one or two days of testing leave at the
lunch break, |
|
and need to inform the school in advance of this choice. |
