ACT-ASPIRE TESTING IS APRIL 12th-15th @ HOLLY HARSHMAN ELEMENTARY!
Parent Tips: How to Help Your Child
Prepare for HHE-ACT Aspire Testing
On Test Day
Make sure your child gets a good night's sleep and eats a
healthy breakfast
Many teachers report that students who don't do well on tests haven't gotten enough
sleep, and haven't eaten breakfast on the morning of the test. Doing both of these
things will ensure that your child is working at full capacity.
Remain positive
Staying calm will help your child stay calm. If she gets nervous about the test or is
likely to experience anxiety during the test, help her practice some relaxation
techniques that she can try once she's taking the test.

In this challenging and pandemic year, I believe we have seen just how important the arts are in our world. Music is a big part of how we survive in difficulty, celebrate in good times, bond with others, and create memories. Music can be our escape or how we connect with our own emotions. I am thankful that theatre incorporates music in so many ways. Students need to see how music defines a scene, a character, a feeling, or changes the atmosphere in a production. -JESSICA KROPP-
