MAP TESTING
MAP Testing Information

MAP Testing begins TOMORROW for some of our 6th Grade students! The PTA Website has been updated with the latest information and we have included answers to many of the frequently asked questions that parents have had.  Please click the button below to view all of the details.

 

Please read through the information carefully on our site!  If you still have questions regarding the tests, please feel free to contact our Assistant Principal in charge of testing, Ms. Kagaso, at mkagaso@dallasisd.org.

 

Please remember that information is published by Administration and the PTA as soon as it is received from DISD.  Parent patience and flexibility is now more important than ever as we endeavor to get this school year started.  

 

For our Spanish speaking parents, information published on our PTA website can be translated using the Google Translate function on the top left corner of the home page.

RE-ENTRY SURVEY
We Need 100% Participation!

Help our Teachers and Administration prepare for the return to school by letting them know if your student will be returning to campus for instruction on October 5th (September 28th for 6th Grade) or if he/she will remain in the distance learning format.  

We are still missing data for 500 students... let's be the first school to reach 100% participation!
