MCAS Preparation
The Massachusetts Comprehensive Assessment System is a critical exam for any high school student in Massachusetts. Though this year you are in the 9th grade, it is a good idea to look ahead and prepare yourself for the MCAS test next year. Please find a link to the Massachusetts Department of Education website where MCAS retests are available for practice. Once you click the link below you will be moved directly to a DOE website where you can click on tests from years dating back to 2006. Take a look!
