Announcing PARCC/DC Science Testing Dates

Deal students will take the annual statewide PARCC assessment May 3-5 (Math) and May 9-12 (ELA | Science - 8th grade only). Testing will take place at the beginning of the school day for all grade levels. We are asking families to avoid scheduling appointments on these mornings and to ensure students arrive on time to be able to test with their cohort; late entries to a testing session are prohibited. Students are encouraged to bring their own wired headphones for use with their DCPS device. Deal will provide headphones for any student that needs them.
