Good afternoon Woolie families, 

Here are a few reminders for the ELA MCAS Grades 7 and 8  starting Tuesday, April 7th and ending on Wednesday, April 8th.  Please note that, as a school, we are still required to participate in MCAS testing.  Students will not have access to phones, smartwatches, personal devices, AirPods/earbuds, etc. during testing.  The devices will be collected to ensure test security. 

For MCAS, students will be using their school-issued device.

• Please make sure students come to school with a device fully charged so it is at 100% battery for both days of testing.

• Please make sure students log out and shut down their Chromebooks the day before testing. This allows any updates to process.

• MCAS testing rooms will be posted outside the Junior High Office as well as upstairs in the E hallway. Testing locations will be the same on both Tuesday and Wednesday. Attendance will be taken in the testing rooms. 

• MCAS testing is scheduled for the first three blocks of the day. Students are allowed additional time if they do not finish. Students must complete testing by 2:00 PM.

• If your student is still testing at lunch time, we will make sure that they have the opportunity to go get lunch and eat in the testing room.

• If your student is absent from school for any reason on Tuesday or Wednesday, please plan for them to take the missed session during the make-up session on Thursday, April 9th, 2026.

• Students should go to bed early on the nights before MCAS and eat a good breakfast in the morning.

Thank you for your cooperation and understanding. 

Sincerely,

Administration and Faculty at Millbury Memorial Jr./Sr. High School
