Summer Test-Prep Booklets Distributed

E-mail Print PDF

The Plaquemines Parish Public School System is providing LEAP/GEE21 summer practice booklets in language arts and math for students going into grades 4, 8, and 10.  For the past several years the school system has distributed the test materials free of charge, and Superintendent Denis Rousselle feels the program has contributed to the outstanding test scores across the parish.  Before school closed at the end of May, every third and seventh grade student was given booklets to take home.  Parents of next year's tenth graders may pick up the booklets at their respective schools.  Dates and hours that each school office will be opened are specified on an insert included with the report card mailed home.  Students are encouraged to complete both booklets before the start of school to be better prepared for the high stakes testing in the spring.  All students turning in completed packets on the first day of school will receive bonuses in English and Math and will be eligible for incentive prizes.

Louisiana public school students take the high-stakes LEAP or GEE21 tests in grades 4, 8, 10, and 11.  For students in 4th and 8th grade, the consequence of failing the test is not being allowed to advance to the next grade level.  High school students who do not pass are not allowed to graduate.  Working the grade-appropriate summer workbooks will greatly enhance each student's chances of passing these standardized tests.  It is hoped parents will encourage their children to put forth their best effort in completing the practice materials in time for the start of school, August 7.  According to Curriculum Supervisor Sandy Brechtel, "This is a wonderful opportunity for students to brush up on their skills and get a jump-start on preparing for next year's state assessments."  For more information, contact Mrs. Brechtel at the school board office at (504) 595-6352.
