Participation in SC Ready is mandatory for all students in grades 3 through 5, so there's no option to opt out. We appreciate your efforts to ensure your student arrives on time and ready to learn. Testing will commence promptly at the start of each day. Students who arrive after the tardy bell at 7:50 AM will be supervised in a separate area to prevent disruption of tests and will need to make up the test later.

SC Ready testing will be conducted online this year. We thank you for your understanding and cooperation in refraining from scheduling appointments during these important testing dates. Just a friendly reminder: cell phones and other electronic devices are not permitted in the classroom during testing.
