WV State Assessments have begun and for students in grades 3 -8, parents may view results online by visiting https://wv.portal.cambiumast.com/ . These results should populate 24 hours after the student has tested in math and science, and once both reading and writing are complete, an ELA score will populate. Reading and writing are combined into the ELA score. If your child is missing an ELA score, please wait 10 days from the date of testing before contacting the school. One in ten essays is randomly sent to hand-scoring, and this can delay the results. Once on the View My Results site, enter the student's 6-digit access code he/she received a few weeks ago attached to the WVDE testing letter and the child's birthdate. This will give you immediate access to your student's results along with helpful information. If you have misplaced the access code, you may contact your student's school.

Last week, Governor Patrick Morrisey participated in Read Across America Week at West Teays Elementary School! Governor Morrisey stopped by Ms. Painter’s second-grade classroom to read “Green Eggs and Ham” by Dr. Seuss. Students enjoyed the visit and engaged in a fun Q and A! “A strong foundation in early literacy is key to success in life, said Governor Morrisey. “A student with a strong reading ability in the third-grade has improved future educational and behavioral outcomes. Thank you to educators across the state who are ensuring the next generation of West Virginians can achieve their full potential.” #PutnamProud
