The Georgia Milestones Assessment System includes four End-of-Course Assessments that must be completed by Georgia high school students for validation of course credit and as part of their grade for the corresponding course. Student testing assignments are posted to the student body group on Canvas. Please check testing locations prior to test day.
Testing will take place the week of April 28 - May 2, with make-up tests administered in the afternoons and throughout the following week. Note that the week of April 28 is NOT a virtual week. All SFHS students must attend school for the entire school day. Testing will begin promptly, so please make sure that your students are on time and know where to report for EOC testing. Students taking classes in school will resume their normal schedule after their testing session is over. Full-Time FVA students taking EOCs will be dismissed for pick-up after their testing session is over.

What areas teachers may need additional training and support.
-
Programs/initiatives that are successful such as an after school tutoring program.
