WI Forward Exam Reminder

Federal law requires all public school children in grades 3-8 participate in statewide tests in English Language Arts and Mathematics.  This year all students in Wisconsin will again participate in the assessment called the WI Forward Exam.  The WI Forward Exam is a computer-based assessment consisting of several parts.  Test items include a variety of selected response, short answer response, technology enhanced items and writing.

Please see below for the test dates and times.  Please avoid scheduling appointments and vacations during testing times because it is important that students are in attendance on the days the tests are administered.  In addition, please make sure your child gets adequate rest and has a good breakfast every day.  Finally, encourage your child to do his/her best and to talk with you about the exams.
