All 8th graders will be taking the Explore Test on Tuesday, October 7. The test will be taken during first through forth periods. The purpose of the Explore test is to help determine the appropriate classes your child will take next year at Downers South. This is an important test! Please make sure your child gets a good night sleep and eats a healthy breakfast!
