• Testing is an important component of education. Testing is a way for educators to gather data to help guide their instruction. Data helps us determine how students are performing and helps teachers determine the next steps to take to improve student learning. Testing provides us with valuable information that can help us improve teaching and learning for Cleburne County students. Please try to make sure your child is present and on time for testing dates. Please make sure they get plenty of sleep and eat breakfast.
