<div>*Your child may have communicated to you that there were going to be some changes to the state assessment concerning writing.&nbsp;</div>
<div>This information is true. The writing assessment for the 2025-2026 school year will not count towards your child's state testing score.&nbsp;</div>
<div>However, it is crucial that we keep writing and give it our best in preparation for the future.&nbsp;</div>
<div>&nbsp;</div>
<div>Thanks,&nbsp;</div>
<div>Mrs. Gaylord&nbsp;</div>
