Noe News is CATS News!

[Deb Amchin]

This week begins CATS testing throughout the state of Kentucky.  Our students will be participating both this week and next demonstrating everything they already know by taking the tests, and we’re sure they’ll do quite well!  Some things to remember to help your child do his or her best:

·         Be sure your child gets plenty of rest each night;

·         If your child has breakfast at home, make sure she eats a nutritious morning meal; and

·         Encourage your child to take the test seriously and show off all his knowledge.

Many thanks to the staff at Noe for preparing our children to display their academic skills during the testing period – I’m looking forward to opening up the Courier-Journal next fall and seeing their excellent scores.

 

Even before testing concludes next week, there’s still a lot happening at Noe!
