Two High Schools Questions Issues from
Sonja. Email her at skolkmeier@greensburg.k12.in.us
with your feedback.
I'm looking for a couple answers to
two high school issues/questions.
1. Does your school take a stance on
clothing apparel that has the confederate flag on it? We have two students that
a teacher that has "raised a red flag." Was reaching out to see what
you might do.
2. What has your school decided to do
with the stance of giving/not giving the ISTEP+ Grade 10 Science exam? The
statement below is from the DOE.
018 ISTEP+ GRADE 10 SCIENCE ASSESSMENT
(Please Read Carefully)
ISTEP+
Grade 10 Science Assessment replaces ISTEP+ High School Biology.
What
this means:
·
Previous guidance regarding reporting
students for the High School Biology assessment no longer applies.
·
Students should participate in the
ISTEP+ Grade 10 Science assessment (9920) prior to the end of their
cohort’s 10th grade year.
·
This assessment may be administered to
students in the Spring of their 9th or 10th grade year, regardless of their
enrollment status inBiology I. (It is a local decision whether students
will participate in 9th or 10th grade.)
·
Students currently enrolled in
grade 8 and grades 11-12 will not participate in the ISTEP+
Grade 10 Science assessment.
Thanks for your input! Wishing you
quiet days leading up to break!
