Hello All,
Students in Grade 5-7 and 9-12 are scheduled for an NAT today (Grade 8 will be MAP testing at this time).
All Secondary grades (minus Grade 8) will test at 9:00am.
It would also be helpful if all secondary teachers that are able could come down to the PAC Foyer between 8:30-9:30am for a quick NAT as well.
Many thanks!
