window. The second round of ISTEP testing is
scheduled for April 27 through May 15.

Indiana for all students in third grade. The IREAD-3
evaluates reading skills. There is only a 3 day
testing window for the IREAD-3 so please make sure
your child is in attendance for the assessment. Any
make-up tests will be administered during the
summer. For more information about IREAD-3 and

Please make sure your child is well-rested and eats
a good breakfast during these testing windows. As
always, encourage your child to do his or her
personal best
