Stanley G. Oswalt Academy

Wow, how fast the year has flown by! It is already April and CST testing is right around the corner. As we prepare for our testing I just wanted to give all families a few reminders. First, CST testing will be from April 23- May 4 for all 2-8th grade students, with the make-up testing happening the week of May 7. It is important that your child comes to school on time during the testing weeks and eats a healthy breakfast in the morning. If a student does not have food in their stomach or is tired from a lack of sleep then your child will not be able to do his/her best on the test. Your teachers and your students have worked very hard all year learning all the material required to do well on the CST test and now it is their time to shine and show off what they know! Remember, your confidence in them will shine through. There is no need for students to feel stressed, as long as they give their very best effort the results will show! If you would like to CST test release questions you can visit www.cde.ca.gov or www.starsamplequestions.org . We look forward to another wonderful showing by our Oswalt scholar students. Have a great Spring!
