Prepare Your Students for State Testing

Many of our students will participate in state testing this spring. Participation is important because results help students, parents and teachers understand whether students have mastered the content they need to know by the end of the school year to be on track for college and career success. Please help your students prepare to do their very best on these upcoming assessments.

To view the testing letter and related information, please visit aurorak12.org/testing.

Prepare a sus hijos para las pruebas estatales

Muchos de nuestros estudiantes participarán en las pruebas estatales durante esta primavera. La participación es importante porque los resultados ayudan a los estudiantes, padres de familia y maestros, a comprender si los estudiantes han dominado los contenidos que deben saber para el final del año escolar, para así estar preparados para el camino a la universidad y una carrera.  Por favor ayuden a sus hijos a prepararse y que tengan su mejor desempeño en las pruebas que vienen.

APS Nondiscrimination Notice from the Legal Office 

Anytime Aurora Public Schools leaders make the decision to close schools or dismiss schools early, questions come up about our process.  As a result, we have updated the APS Incident Response Team Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs) in relation to the Sept. 12 early dismissals and Sept. 13 closures.  Please see the attached FAQs, in English and Spanish, at http://aurorak12.org/2013/09/17/closure-dismissal-faq/
