Dear Parents/Students,
FIRST TERM TEST 2020 – Grade 6 to Grade 11
In spite of the fact that the schools are not functioning properly, we have already started communicating with the students through Google Classrooms. Hope you have already joined the Google Classrooms. I am happy that most of the students have responded to the learning facility that we are using now.
At the end of the present classes we are holding with you, we are arranging the Term Test according to the original, annual plans which I believe would be a good news for you. The first Term Test we were unable to hold in school will be given to you through Google Classrooms. It will commence on the 26th of May. The time tables for the subjects that we are going to test will be uploaded to the Google Classrooms, in due course.

Answer scripts will be marked by subject teachers. A digital report card will be generated for each student.
Dear Parent,
- Please arrange a separate place at home, where your child can take part in the Term Test undisturbed.
- Please encourage and motivate him/her to continue self-studies at home according to a personal timetable aiming at the Term Test. Google Classroom will assist him/her in this endeavor.
- Your understanding and assistance during this challenging period are much solicited.
All parents and students are hereby informed that teaching and learning process will continue through distance learning mode until schools are permitted to reopen and even after the schools are reopened. We use Google Classroom at present, we may use any other suitable platform in the future.
We are making every effort to contact every student. I am happy that except a few all others have already joined the Google Classrooms. We will provide opportunity for those who have not joined yet to join immediately, so that nobody will be deprived of the term test assessment and the report card.
Thank you,
