Parents often ask how they might assist their children in preparing for the tests.  Here’s what you can do:
·                Ensure that your child is on time each day.  This is critical!
·                Make every effort to have your child attend classes regularly.  Avoid
                 absences.
·                Ensure that your child has adequate sleep and a nutritious breakfast.
·                Plan appointments and other disruptions to the school day for another
                 time.

·                Discuss the tests with your child and encourage individual best effort.
