7th grade students had the opportunity to visit the Technology Center of DuPage and learn about a variety of career paths and programs.
Today was a great first day of IAR Testing at Albright. We started with a walk and ended with bingo and an assembly about positive communication. Go Vikings!! ❤️🖤
Albright students start IAR Testing tomorrow, 4/4. It is very important that our students charge their Chromebook and charge themselves by getting a good night's rest during our testing days. We will test the rest of this week and then on 4/11 and 4/13. Eating a good breakfast is suggested, and getting to school on time is essential. Bringing a water bottle and a book to read during testing is helpful too. Wireless headphones are not allowed, so if they have plug-in headphones, have them bring those instead. We will have backups as needed. Tomorrow is a half day, so we will start with a whole school walk to get everyone moving. Please have your child wear comfortable shoes.
It would be great if you sent some words of encouragement to your child(ren) each testing day. This can be an email to their school account, text, handwritten note, or even a note on their mirror with a dry-erase marker. Your support is very much appreciated.
Sincerely,
Ms. Aulisa
