McCallum Students and Families;
McCallum students will be STAAR EOC testing in April and May. The STAAR EOC assessments measure students’ academic performance in core high school courses (Algebra I, English I, English II, Biology, U.S. history). Students are required to take the STAAR EOC assessments for courses in which they’re enrolled as part of their graduation requirements.
The following are the dates that we will be testing STAAR EOCs at McCallum:
- April 18th Eng 1 and Eng 2
- April 19th Eng 1 and Eng 2 Make up testing
- April 27th Bio and USH
- April 28th Bio and USH Make up testing
- May 3rd Alg 1

On these dates, all students who are testing should bring:
Charged chromebook
Chromebook Charger
Refillable water bottle
Snacks
Sack lunch (there will be some limited school sack lunches for those who need them)
Wired headphones or wired earbuds (for students who have oral accommodations)
Students should make sure their Chromebook is up to date.
Students will begin testing at 9:05 and will be able to test until the end of the day (if needed.) Please make sure students have a good night’s sleep and that they eat a good breakfast before testing. Students should arrive at school on time and be ready to do their best.
