8th grade students who are attending Arapahoe High School and who are interested in honors math or sciences course need to take the honors skills assessment for math and science. If you are interested in these honors courses there is one more opportunity to take the assessment for freshman math and science honors courses. These assessments are not placement exams. We are not allowed to "skip" or "test out" of courses that are prerequisites. These assessments are only to determine regular vs. honors placement in courses. Students not wishing to be placed in an Honors math course do not need to take an assessment and will be promoted to the next regular level math course.
The math/science skill assessment will be given on Wednesday, May 17th from 4:30 - 6:00 PM. The skill assessment will be located in Room W1528. Students should enter through the Forum Entrance on the north side of the building, across from the baseball field (enter the parking lot off of Franklin Street). Students should bring #2 pencils and a non-graphing calculator. For additional information, please see the Math/Science Skill Assessment Information
