End of the Year Testing Updates: NEW!

End of Year Testing UPDATES

End of Year Testing Schedule 

(Updated 5-12-2025)

We have adjusted our end-of-year testing schedule to align with state and district guidelines and ensure all students take our end-of-course required state tests. To help students navigate the testing process, your student will make an individualized test schedule with their courses listed.  Please ask them to share a digital copy with you. 

Students must bring their school-issued Chromebook (fully charged) and charger to each testing session.  Spare devices will not be available.  Contact Ms. Bombien, margarets.bombien@cms.k12.nc.us, with any Chromebook issues.  Chromebooks will be collected the day of the student’s last exam.

Please see this document for full details regarding end of year testing.
