Memorial Middle School and Jacobs Elementary School
will host a PARCC information night for the parents and guardians of
students in Grades K through 8 on Tuesday, January 13, 2015 at 7:00 pm
at Memorial Middle school.
PARCC is the new standardized test in English Language Arts and Math that
will replace the current state test we all know as MCAS. There are
several ways that PARCC is different from MCAS. Most notably, PARCC is a
computer based test.
At the
information night we will be able to answer questions, address concerns,
and assist families with understanding the differences between the
tests as well as the preparation students need to be ready for the new
test. All parents and guardians are invited and encouraged to attend.
