English EOC/STAAR Exams
On Monday, March 30, 2015, all 9th grade students will take the English I EOC/STAAR
Exam and on Wednesday, April 1, 2015, all 10th grade students will take the English II
EOC/STAAR Exam. Students who did not previously meet the passing standards will also
retest on these days. As a result, we will operate on an alternate bell schedule to
accommodate for the English EOC/STAAR Exams. The school day will begin at the
normal time of 7:20AM for all students who are initially testing and for those who are
retesting. Students who have previously passed the English I EOC/STAAR or English II
EOC/STAAR or those who are not testing will have late arrival to school and will need to
report to their 1st period classes by 9:30AM on the appropriate day. Students may bring a
snack, but it must be in a clear plastic baggie and “clean”, not Cheetos, Doritos, peaches,
etc. Also, NO outside drinks will be permitted into testing rooms.
The English EOC/STAAR exam allows for 5 hours and we want to be sure to
accommodate all students for this important exam. As a result, the school day will end at
2:20PM instead of the regular time of 1:58PM on both Monday and Wednesday of the
testing days. If you have any questions, please contact Mrs. Schwebach @
[email protected].
