As a parent, you can help your child do their best by using the tips below:
Make sure that your child gets plenty of sleep on the days and nights of testing.
Be sure that your child has breakfast before school. All schools will be serving breakfast for students during the testing windows.
Encourage your child to do their best. Take their time in answering the questions but do not stress about the results.
Let them know the test results won’t affect their grades and won’t determine whether they pass or fail.
Make sure that your child attends school during the testing windows.
