[samscommunity] Eighth Grade Explore Test on Wednesday, Sept. 27

MESSAGE FROM ST. ANDREWS MIDDLE SCHOOL:


(a copy of this letter went out with all 8th graders on Wed. September
20, 2006)

Attention all 8th Grade Parents"

This school year, the SC Department of Education will again fund the
ACT EXPLORE assessment for all 8th graders.  EXPLORE is a "junior"
version of the PLAN/ACT tests at the high school level.  The test
provides students and parents with excellent information for educational
and career planning.  The test will also help students with their 4 year
plan for high school.

This school year, I will be contacting all parents for an individual
conference with you and your child.  This is required now by the state
legislature.  Taking the EXPLORE test is the first step in gathering
information for this individual conference.  More information on this
meeting will follow in the near future.

St. Andrews Middle School will give all 8th graders the EXPLORE
assessment on Wednesday, September 27th, during the morning hours. 
Student will stay in their homerooms to take the assessment, and then
report to lunch. After lunch they will resume their normal day
schedule.

You 8th grader should come prepared and bring two #2 pencils, as well
as their personal four-function calculator.  The school will provide
scratch paper, extra pencils, and a limited number of calculators.

If you have any questions, please feel to contact me at 750- 4036.


Sincerely,


Marilyn Hatcher-Franquiz, M.Ed., GCDF
8th Grade Counselor
