New York State ELA Test 
Grades 3-8
Students in Grades 3-8 will be administered the NYS ELA test on April 11 and 12th this year.
This test  along with the NYS Mathematics test in May are 
one measure of your child's academic progress and should not be misconstrued as the be all and end of your child's 
academic success. 
Children must learn that testing is part of the everyday process of learning and as they get older there will be high stakes test for high school and college admissions.    
What parent does not want their child to be doctor, an actuary or an engineer. Those professions and many more all require licensees that  involve a test. Children need to learn the seriousness of testing, how to concentrate in a given time frame and this is learned as they grow academically now in grammar school.
Children during the Easter break should work on MAP skills, Khan Academy and other online programs that teachers have signed them up for in order to prepare for these tests. 
Should parents have any concerns they should feel free to see Mr. Woods on Sundays from 2:00 PM - 5:00 PM.
