Students in Grades 2-8 will work throughout a two-week period on the ITBS, The Iowa Test of Basic Skills, a standardized test administered throughout The Archdiocese of Los Angeles. This test will be an integral part of every 2^nd – 8^th grade students’ morning (with a few afternoon testing period exceptions possible) until Friday, September 27. The tests require attention to directions, reading, analyzing, figuring, and working within a specific time period. Please do all possible to have students at school on time and avoid appointments during these weeks if that can be arranged as well.
