Terra Nova Achievement Test
All Middle School students will take the Terra Nova Achievement Test in the Spring.  Information about the testing schedule will be posted in March.  Please contact Lynn Beverly with any questions or concerns.

EXPLORE Testing
All 8th grade students take the EXPLORE test in the Fall.  This is a great opportunity for our students to experience and take a practice ACT test with the four academic sections (Math, English, Reading, and Science) and for them to take an interest inventory to help them make connections regarding their career interests with the world of work.  EXPLORE results will be mailed with semester report cards.  For more information about the EXPLORE please contact Lynn Beverly or visit www.explorestudent.org.
