Hello Titan Family, Next Week, April 26th-30th, JMS scholars will take the ACT Aspire tests. Our scholars are ready to show what they know! All scholars will need to bring their school issued Chromebook and charger to take the ACT Aspire. If your Chromebook is damaged or disabled, please contact the school immediately, so that we can work to solve the issue before April 26. A few testing reminders: No cell phones, smart watches, or other electronic devices are allowed in the testing environment. Please leave these devices at home, if possible. Scholars that bring these devices to school will be required to relinquish the device during the testing sessions. It is extremely important that your scholars attend their scheduled test sessions.
