To the Tri-County Community,
Spring means MCAS and next week our sophomores will sit for the ELA portion of the exams. All sophomore students will be taking the English Language Arts MCAS exam. The test will run for two days on Tuesday, March 26 and Wednesday, March 27. We have been working very hard to prepare for this year's exams as ELA and Math will be new exams in an electronic format. Please have your sophomore students go to bed at a reasonable time each night this week and come to school on time and ready to do their best. Students may bring reading material if they finish early or may work on homework that is not ELA related. Please remind your children that cell phones, earbuds, iPods, or any electronic devices are not allowed at the testing sites. It would be better to leave them home or in their lockers during MCAS. Please make sure your child is in school and on time, each day of testing and if there is a problem, let the school know as soon as possible.
Spring sports practices began this week and we were actually able to spend some time outside. Hopefully, the weather will cooperate over the next few weeks and we can keep on schedule once the seasons begin. Spring weather is always a challenge.
Over the past few weeks' students selected classes for next year, so it's a busy time in the Guidance Department as we ramp up our Admissions process for next year as we finish student interviews with an eye towards our placement exam next month.
It is also the time of year where we sent our best craftsmen to the Skills USA District competition in Easton, MA at Southeastern Regional. Please take the time to check out the medal winners on our website. The Gold and Silver Medal winners will be competing in the State Competitions next month. https://www.tri-county.us/skillsusa
Thanks for your support.
Work Hard, Today Counts,
Mr. Procaccini
