STATE & LOCAL TESTING INFORMATION

At Slaughter Community Charter School (SCCS), assessments are an important part of monitoring student progress, guiding instruction, and preparing students for continued academic and postsecondary success. This page provides students and families in grades 7–12 with convenient access to state and school assessment information, testing schedules, and resources.
