OSTP Testing Tips for Students and Reminder for Parents

Let's keep DVA students engaged, motivated, and energized. With spring testing around the corner, TSET’s Shape Your Future program has some helpful tips to keep everyone focused in the classroom.

1. Get Plenty of Sleep: A good night’s sleep is one of the most valuable tools children can have when the big day rolls around.

2. Eat a Good Breakfast: Once a child wakes up refreshed from a restful night’s sleep, they should fuel their body and brain with a healthy and nutritious breakfast!

3. Pack Healthy Snacks: Hungry bellies can really throw a wrench into test day.

4. Get Physical: Students may be buried in the online textbooks; however, getting in a little movement the week of their state assessment will benefit them.

5. Stay Positive: Don’t let stress make students a mess. Be encouraging and open with them about what the tests are and why it’s important to prepare. This will help keep their nerves at bay and set them up for success.
