TAKS TESTING SCHEDULE CHANGED FOR FIRST WEEK OF MARCH
Bandera, Texas
● January 25, 2008
The Texas Education
Agency announced that the State Testing Calendar is
being adjusted to ensure that no Texas Assessment of
Knowledge and Skills (TAKS) exams are given on primary
election day – March 4th. The change was
announced because many schools throughout the state are
used as polling places. The Commissioner of Education,
Robert Scott, decided to change the testing calendar
after consulting with many superintendents, testing
coordinators and education service center directors.
Under the new calendar,
all tests scheduled for March 4th through
March 6 will be given one day later than originally
scheduled. The exit-level TAKS social studies exam will
be moved from March 7th to March 3rd.
