Header - Client: Exam Days

.

In this section, a client-side script is provided to offer information about the current day and the next school or exam day. This JavaScript program relies on input data concerning school holidays, days off, and exam days.

  1. Start of the School Year Date (updateStartOfYearDate): This variable can be modified to reflect the actual start date of the school year. For example, if the school year starts on September 1st, 2024, the client can change the date like this: 
    var updateStartOfYearDate = new Date("2024-09-01");
     
  2. List of Days Off (updateListOfDaysOff): This list contains pairs of dates and descriptions of days off. The client can add, remove, or modify days off and their descriptions. Each date should be in the format "YYYY-MM-DD", and the description can be any string. For example, to add another day off on December 1st, 2024, with the description "National Holiday", the client can do this:
    var updateListOfDaysOff = [
        new Date("2024-05-12"), "Parent-Teacher Conferences",
        new Date("2024-10-04"), "Fall Break",
        new Date("2024-12-01"), "National Holiday"
    ];
     
  3. List of Exams (updateListOfExams): This list contains pairs of dates and descriptions of exams. Similar to the list of days off, the client can add, remove, or modify exams and their descriptions. For example, to add another exam on June 15th, 2024, with the description "Mathematics Exam", the client can do this: 
    var updateListOfExams = [
        new Date("2024-05-13"), "Final Exam for Subject X",
        new Date("2024-10-05"), "Final Exam for Subject Y",
        new Date("2024-06-15"), "Mathematics Exam"
    ];

SOL Testing Information

2024-2025 School Year SOL Testing Information

This year the state is assessing new standards in mathematics, and is transitioning to new standards in English/Language Arts.  The SOL tests will be completely new in math courses and the reading tests will use old questions but only cover content in common between the old and new standards.  

SOL Testing will take place in the following courses:

3rd Grade: Reading, Mathematics

4th Grade: Reading, Mathematics, and Virginia Studies

5th Grade: Reading with the IRW writing component, Mathematics, and Science

6th Grade: Reading, Mathematics,

7th Grade: Reading, Mathematics

8th Grade: Reading with the IRW writing component, Mathematics, Science, and Civics/Economics.

High School: Algebra I, Geometry, Algebra II, English 10 Performance Assessments (Writing), English 11 Reading, Earth Science, Biology, Chemistry, World History I, World History II/AP World History, and US/VA History.

High school students who have already met their graduation requirements in a subject and have met federal participation requirements may not have to take some of these SOLs.  For example, most students do not need to take Chemistry, World History II, and US/VA History.   Some students have also taken Algebra I or Geometry in middle school and don't need to take those SOLs in high school.
