Chadron Middle School Testing Schedule

Chadron Middle School will NeSA test students in grades 5-8 on March 30th-April 14th.  MAPS testing will follow in grades 5-8 on April 18th-April 28th.  We have divided the testing schedule among the four grade levels in a way that will allow students with plenty of time to complete each test.  We've also tried to spread out the testing dates in a way that is efficient, yet functional for our students and teachers.  

It is very important that students are in school, on time, and rested on their assigned testing days. Although we have scheduled make up days, it is in the students best interest to take the assessments on the assigned days.  If you have any questions about the testing schedule, please contact Mr. Dressel at 432-0708 or nichlas.dressel@chadronschools.net.
