Herndon Elementary SOL Schedule
The Virginia SOLs will be administered May 15-June 9.
These tests give us important information about the skills your student has
mastered and where they might need more assistance from us as a school.
Parents, we ask you to support your student during this time by making sure
they get a good night’s sleep the night before, a good breakfast the day of the
test, and to avoid scheduling appointments. Thank you so much!
Here is the link for a detailed schedule: http://www2.fcps.edu/HerndonES/docs/SOL%20Schedule%202017.pdf
During SOL testing, lunch times for students in grade 3-6
may change to accommodate grade levels who are testing on a particular
day. If you plan to meet your student for lunch please verify the time
with their homeroom teacher or Mr. Correllus.
 Math teacher, Mrs. Graham, is getting the 6th graders "pumped" for their math SOL!
