In Preparation of Testing:

• Remember all cell phones must be off during testing.  Students will not be allowed to be in possession of any electronic device.  If they are found to have one during the test it will be a misadministration.   Faculty members are very accustomed to having their cell phone with them daily.  On testing days it is highly recommended that the cell phones be removed from the classroom during testing.  They must be turned OFF during the entire testing session.  It is  a good time to begin preparing students/faculty for this procedure.
• All items on classroom walls that could be considered as a guide or could be of assistance during the testing session should be removed from the walls.  It is a good time to start really looking at posters, etc. to determine what should be removed or covered during testing.
