A Note from Ms. Lisa about CMAS:
State testing season is upon us and we want to make sure you have all of the info you need to help your child be successful on these assessments in April. CMAS testing will take place during the weeks of April 3rd and April 10th. Our testing schedule can be found HERE.

During this time, it is important that students are:

  • At school

  • On time

  • Well rested

  • Have had a good breakfast and bring filling snacks to school

This can truly make a world of difference!


If you choose to have your student not test this year, they will need to stay home during testing session hours as we, unfortunately, have no additional room or staff in the building that are not being used for testing to support them. Please contact ljackson1@dcsdk12.org if you are considering this or have any questions.
