Today, Tuesday, April 6, the STAAR Writing Exam was to be administered to Glen Rose ISD fourth and seventh grade students along with fourth and seventh grade students across the state. Some students were taking this test online. High School English 1 was also testing online today. The ETS app, the platform through which the test is administered, is experiencing technical difficulties and is spontaneously removing students from the exam or not allowing access at all. This is a statewide issue, and is not controlled by the district. The Texas Education Agency has canceled online testing for the day while ETS works to resolve issues. The rescheduled online date has not yet been determined, but we will keep you updated as this situation evolves. Thank you for your patience and understanding. The paper pencil test takers are still working hard!
