2024 MAAP State Testing Calendar

The 2024 MAAP State Testing season is just around the corner. It is imperative for every student to be at school on their scheduled testing dates. The information below will let you know the dates your child is scheduled to test. We ask that any outside appointments be made with these dates in mind.
On the day of testing, please be sure that your child is well-rested and arrives at school on time. A good breakfast along with a stress-free morning will also help to make a positive testing day!

If you are tired at school, drink 6 ounces of water and take 5 deep breaths. Nap when you get home.😴
