Students must be present each day regardless of the exams being administered.
Good luck to our scholars and we look forward to wrapping up semester 1 of 2023-2024 on a positive note and starting semester 2 on Wednesday 1/31. (Schools will be closed on Monday 1/29 & 1/30).
Tomorrow, Tuesday January 23rd, we will be administering the English Language Arts Grade 10 (ELA 10) MCAP. Only students who have been scheduled to take the test are to report to school tomorrow. There are only 138 students scheduled to test. For the majority, these students are 10th graders currently in a semester long English 10 course or 11th and 12th graders who still need to take the ELA 10 MCAP. The names of the student’s testing were on a whiteboard in townhall and the cafeteria and student’s testing should know who they are.Students who are not testing will not report to school tomorrow at all. These students will have virtual, asynchronous work to complete at home.Thank you for your patience and continued flexibility with the many changes to our testing schedule due to the impact of weather and adherence to State of Maryland testing guidelines.
NDHS Message - Due to the inclement weather delay for Monday 1/22, only testers for the ELA 10 MCAP will report on Tuesday 1/23. All 4 sections will occur on Tuesday.
Students not testing will access work virtually and asynchronously on Tuesday 1/23.
