Dear Families,


We wanted to share some information about the upcoming NGSS and SBAC State testing that students at SATEC will be participating in. The NGSS is a science assessment administered in Grades 5 & 8. This assessment provides information about general science knowledge and science process skills. The SBAC is a comprehensive assessment of English Language Arts and Mathematics for students in Grades 3-8. This assessment is given online and students have been learning how to take tests in an online format throughout the school year. The scores are shared by the Vermont Agency of Education as one measure of our school performance and we use the scores to help us plan for how to better support students.


In order to provide a positive testing environment and encourage students to get plenty of rest in the evenings we will not be assigning homework for students in all grades (K-8) . We ask that you please encourage your children to get plenty of rest, eat a healthy breakfast, and to try their best.  Services for students will focus on providing accommodations for the tests.
