The Maryland Integrated Science Assessment (MISA) is administered to all students in fifth grade, eighth grade, and high school every spring. MISA will take place for our 5th grade students on March 13th, 14th, 16th and 17th. MISA measures student achievement on the Maryland Content Standards in Science in Grade 5 (testing content from Grades 3, 4 and 5). To learn more about MISA, please visit the HCPSS Testing page. Parents/Guardians do not need to do anything to prepare for this assessment as all preparation will take place at school.
