Parents, please be aware, as stated in the Spring 2021 South Carolina Test Administration Manual (TAM), “during testing students may not be in possession of any electronic device or other device that can be used for communicating, recording, timing, creating images, or storing images.  These devices include, but are not limited to, cell phones, media players, electronic readers, headphones, smart watches, stop watches, electronic translators, handheld devices, or any electronic imaging or photographic devices.  All electronic devices must be collected before students begin taking the test and returned only after all students in the test session have completed testing.”  Additionally, the TAM states “doctors’ appointments and other out-of-school functions should not be scheduled during testing hours.”  Testing will begin on the days listed as close to 8:00am as possible.
