Through its PREP U Weekday workshops, Dallas ISD will offer families a series of workshops to learn more about the upcoming administration of the State Assessments of Academic Readiness, or STAAR.
In the interactive workshops, families will be able to view sample questions in reading, math, and writing, as well as learn about the passing standards. District experts will be there to answer questions on how the STAAR impacts high school graduation requirements and other topics. By attending the workshops, parents will have access to resources to take home.
The workshops are in English with Spanish interpretation and include refreshments and prizes. For more information, contact the Office of Family and Community Engagement at 972-925-3916 or family@dallasisd.org.
