Dear 11th Grade Parents and Guardians,
New Jersey public schools are required to issue a statewide assessment called the New Jersey Student Learning Assessment (NJSLA). It will be administered to students in grades 3 through 9 and 11. The test is designed to measure whether students are meeting the NJ Student Learning Standards in English/Language Arts, Mathematics, and Science. 11th-grade students are required to take the NJSLA in Science only.
Park Ridge Jr./Sr. High School will be administering the test in English/Language Arts and Science on April 30 and May 1 (grades 7, 8, 9 & 11 only) and in Mathematics on May 7 and 8 (grades 7-10 only).
On April 30 and May 1, 11th-grade students are required to take the NJSLA Science exam. 11th graders should report to school at the regularly scheduled time (7:45 am). Students will report directly to their testing rooms. The NJSLA testing will take place from 7:50 am to approximately 9:56 am each day. All classes will meet on an abbreviated schedule following testing. The school day will finish as usual at 2:44 pm. A period-by-period schedule for April 30 and May 1 can be found HERE.
On May 7 and May 8, students in grade 11 will follow a special delayed opening schedule and are to report to school by 9:45 am. For safety purposes, students will only be able to enter through the main entrance on these days. All classes will meet on an abbreviated schedule on the testing days. The school day will finish as usual at 2:44 pm. A period-by-period schedule for May 7 and May 8 can be found HERE.
Thank you for all you do on behalf of your children. Please be in touch with my office if there are any questions you may have.
Sincerely,
Troy Lederman
Principal, Park Ridge Jr./Sr. High School
