Make-up dates are for students
who are absent during the designated administration times.
Testing must be completed no later than the last day of the
make-up period.
Schools may stagger the
administration of tests during the testing day to alleviate
space problems and to assist students with testing
accommodations.
NOTE:
An effort has been made to avoid scheduling the administration
of State exams on days of religious holidays. Make-up dates are
provided so that students who miss the initial test dates due to
a religious holiday may still participate in these tests. |
