**There is always an opportunity for our students to come in at 7:30AM on test day for a last minute review.  I will also post a test review video and other tools for our kids to look at the day/night before to help them be successful on each test.   Sadly, the percentage of students taking advantage of these opportunities is not where it needs to be.  Example:  For the Screencastify video review (11 minutes and 44 seconds), there were only 3 students who watched the video prior to 7:30 Friday morning.    The 7:30 am last minute test day review had only 15 students.  That is out of approximately 120 total students.  Coaches have been very accommodating for the students to come in for the 7:30am review.  However, they must let the coaches know well in advance and they will let them leave practice and return when the review is finished. (usually 15-20 minutes).  Please encourage your student to take advantage of these extra help tools.**
