Good evening 8th grade families-
Tomorrow, the MD Integrated Science Assessment, MISA, will be administered to all 8th grade students. This will everyday this week. Please encourage your student to try their best, read carefully, complete all writing prompts and use all of the time provided. We strongly advise families to keep all personal electronic devices at home or have a conversation with your student about relinquishing to a teacher during testing. Any electronic devices that are found while a test is being administered or any student that is found disrupting the testing environment can have serious consequences for the student, their classmates and the school. As always, we appreciate your support in helping us provide the best classroom environment for all NDMS students.
