I wanted to let you know that I just received word from the Department of Elementary and Secondary Education that they are postponing the MCAS ELA Composition test until Monday, March 25th. I have attached the information that the DESE has posted on its website:
In anticipation of severe weather that may result in numerous school closings
and delayed openings tomorrow, Tuesday, March 19 (which is the date scheduled
for the MCAS ELA Composition test), the Department has decided
to postpone the administration of the MCAS ELA Composition test until Monday,
March 25.
All schools must administer the ELA Composition test to
students in grades 4, 7, and 10 on Monday, March 25, including schools
that are not affected by the weather. We realize that this change may be
disruptive for some schools, but for security reasons it is critical that all
schools administer the ELA Composition on the same day. Even schools that are
unaffected by the storm must wait until Monday, March 25, to administer the
test.
Please let me know if you have any questions.
Thank you,
Stephen S. Grenham, Principal
