Need PASS Test Info By Wednesday to Get Pricing

Kelly reminded me about this today – If you are interested in PASS Testing, she needs to KNOW your interest and numbers so she can find out how much the tests will be.  

Keep in mind that yearly testing is required if you are a member of CBCCA for all students 3rd grade and above.

The PASS test is one way to meet this requirement. This is a test that is administered by you as the homeschool instructor. 

Another testing option that is available from CBCCA is Stanford Testing coming up on April 29th. Stanford tests must be ordered by March 14th. Here is the link for that info – https://cbccahomeschooling.com/cbcca-stanford-testing-info/

Here is the info from Kelly from last week –

I (Kelly Erdel) will be coordinating the PASS testing this year.  Please email me your name, address, name of child(ren), and grade(s) if interested in using this testing option for 3rd -8th grade. The cost depends on the number of tests ordered. Please email me at kellytime2@yahoo.com before next Wednesday, the 26th. I plan on calling Thursday morning, and will email with final price that day.

For questions about the PASS test, you will find info in the CBCCA Handbook here: https://cbccahomeschooling.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/12/13-14-handbook.pdf

Island Playground is Awesome!

Just wanted to let everyone know about Island Playground.

We brought Hart for his birthday and it was SUCH a great time! They have discounts for homeschoolers and 13 and over are free!

I personally LOVED going down the slide. Also wi-fi and places for moms to chat. Definitely going to set up a play date in Bluffton for homeschooling moms soon! http://island-playground.com/

The other thing that rocked is that now we know where CBC-Bluffton meets! And if you come I bet you will see some Lawsons running around:)
