Retest Information
- If your child scores a 2 or 1 on a test, then they will get the opportunity to take a retest.
- Generally, a retest will have five questions per SOL (Standard of Learning)
- If your child needs to retest, the original test will sent home in their SILVER folder.
- There will be a note at the top stating which SOL to review and the date of the retest.
- There is a rubric at the end of the test that lists each SOL and the questions/problems on the test that relate to that SOL.
- Please take the time to review with your student, using the test as a study guide.
- The retest will have similar questions to the original test, but will NOT be exactly the same.
- A good strategy is to have your child make corrections to their test to understand their mistakes.
- The highest your child can score on a retest is a 2+.
- It will show up on their report card as a 3.
- The purpose of this is to let us know that it was a topic that they struggled with.
- Please remember that retests are only for tests. Quiz grades are final.
