 7th & 8th Grade Students to take upcoming EXPLORE test.

Our EJHS students will be taking the EXPLORE test on Tuesday, March 4th during 1st, 2nd, and 3rd hours.  This is a pre-ACT test that helps to monitor each student's ability in 4 content areas:  English, Reading, Math and Science.  This is our students first experience at timed testing to help them experience the conditions they will have for the ACT test as Juniors.  The results of this test will help you and your child identify areas of focus that you can work together to improve upon to increase student achievement.  I have provided a link for parents to obtain more information on the purpose of this test and what the results mean to them and their child.   Students experienced personal inventory questions that urged them to look at their goals and intentions for their futures.  Please take time to view the information shared with your child and feel free to contact me if you have any questions related to the testing and its purpose.
