CMAS Testing at LCIS 2021
Dear Parent/Guardian of a 3rd – 6th Grade Student,
Spring is upon us and brings our state testing window.
Due to COVID, this year we will have a reduced amount of testing. Students in 3rd and 5th grades will only test in English Language Arts. Students in 4th and 6th grades will only test in Math. IF you would like your student to test in the subject not being required, please reach out to the front office to opt in to that additional test.
Below is a tentative schedule of when testing will be administered. We appreciate your help in ensuring students are at school and well-rested on assessment days.
Students who are virtual this year, will need to opt in to testing. See additional letter for more information.
In addition, please visit www.lakecountyschools.net/assessment for more information. This page includes resources to answer questions about state assessments and provides links to our Administrative policies regarding assessments.

VIRTUAL STUDENTS
CMAS Testing Spring 2021
CMAS testing is coming soon.
Due to COVID 19 restrictions and considerations, CMAS testing will be conducted in a limited fashion this year. Students who are currently enrolled in the virtual program at LCIS are invited to come to LCIS to take the 2021 CMAS assessment. We know that families have individual health considerations that may make in person testing difficult. CMAS testing for virtual students is voluntary and there will be no negative consequences if your family chooses not to participate in CMAS testing this year.
Please complete this form and return it to LCIS if you would like your child to take the CMAS test assigned to their grade level. You may also opt in to take the CMAS test that is not assigned to your child’s grade.
Help Us Prepare
