Spring 2025 State Testing!
Our official testing window opens mid March.
Students in grades 6th-8th will be take the MAP Grade Level Assessment and high school students in Algebra I, Algebra II, English II, Biology, and Government will take EOC assessments. The majority of testing will begin April 15th and last until the 1st week of May. More details will be shared at a later date. Being at school on testing days is imperative. Students will achieve higher scores when they take their assessments in testing sessions with their class.
Preparing for state testing, such as MAP and EOCs, is essential for student success. Here are some key tips for middle and high school students to help them perform their best:
Before the Test
✅ Stay Organized – Know the testing schedule and what subjects will be covered. Mark important dates on a calendar.
✅ Get Plenty of Rest – Aim for 8–10 hours of sleep each night leading up to the test to improve focus and memory.
✅ Eat a Healthy Breakfast – Fuel your brain with protein, whole grains, and fruit to stay energized.
✅ Practice Time Management – Work on pacing yourself with sample questions or practice tests.
✅ Review Class Materials – Go over notes, previous assignments, and study guides provided by teachers.
During the Test
📝 Read All Directions Carefully – Don’t rush; make sure you understand each question before answering.
🧠 Use Test-Taking Strategies – Eliminate incorrect answers, underline keywords, and take your time.
⌛ Pace Yourself – Don’t spend too much time on one question; move on and come back if needed.
💨 Take Deep Breaths & Stay Positive – Stay calm and confident. A positive mindset can help you perform better.
Encourage your student to prepare early, stay relaxed, and do their best! Teachers and advisors are great resources for additional practice and support.

Mrs. Johnston
The character word for February is Teamwork!
Teamwork is working respectfully and effectively with a group and doing your share. Many basic character strengths, such as communication, self-control, and humility, support a person's ability to work on a team.
Teamwork is more than getting along with people. Teamwork improves problem-solving skills by teaching students to come up with ideas, delegate tasks, and work towards shared objectives. Teamwork also develops leadership qualities, as students learn to initiate, delegate, and assist their peers.
Scholarships!
Be sure to check out our scholarship page on the school's website. The Archie Comprehensive Scholarship list is being updated frequently, and new scholarship links are being added. Scholarship Link

Transcript Requests

College Visits
It is important for students to visit various colleges and universities, attend job and college fairs, job shadow, etc so that they can make informed decisions for their future. Juniors and seniors are permitted to use two days per school year to explore options for their future. Sophomores will be permitted to participate in these visits with approval of administration.
Once a student decides to take part in this opportunity, he or she needs to pick up a college visit form from Academic Services and get the visit approved. You will take the form and complete the bottom portion during and after the visit. The form must then be returned to the attendance office so that your absence can be changed to present- school activity. Not following these steps will result in the day being counted as an absence. Below is a link to the college visit form- College Visit Form

The Archie R-V School District previously used the Tyler Student Information System (SIS); however, due to company changes, we were required to change systems. Many of you have completed on-line registration on our new system, Infinite Campus. A BIG shout out to Mrs. Becky Deardorff and Mrs. Michelle Mell for their leadership throughout this transition.
We ask that you have patience and understanding throughout this school year as ALL staff and families will be navigating this new system. Our administrative assistants will do their best to answer your questions or get back to you with an answer as soon as possible. Again, thank you for your patience.
