SOL Testing Information

A message from LAKE BRADDOCK SEC

Dear Parents and Guardians,

The Virginia Department of Education requires that students in grades 7 through 12 take the Virginia Standards of Learning (SOL). The purpose of the testing is to provide information about student achievement in the content area.  Scores from the test will be used to determine whether students fail to meet standards, are proficient in meeting the standards, or are advanced in the standards.

It will be very helpful if you can avoid appointments which may take your child out of school during this time period.  Also, it will help your child perform his or her best if he or she has had a good night’s rest, a healthy breakfast, and comes to school with a positive attitude.
