Have you ever wondered what it is like for your child to take the MEA's or the NWEA's? Here is your chance to put yourself in their place.
Friday, February 2, 9:15, in the Kaler School Computer Lab, Steve Bailey, the Curriculum Director for the South Portland School District, will be the guest at Chalkboard. Steve will administer released questions from the MEA's and test us on sample questions from the NWEA's.
Join us at Kaler this Friday, and learn about these testing instruments. This is a great opportunity to find out more about these tests and the curriculum in our schools. Everyone is welcome, so please let other parents know about this Chalkboard.
See you there,
