My son has been in the band since he started in 6th grade. He is now going into 8th and I'm hoping they still have band after the school budget problem. My son loves Band. Most teachers are good, and work with parents and the students.

About the tests

In 2010-2011 Nevada used the Criterion Referenced Test (CRT) to test students in grades 3 through 8 in reading and math, and in grades 5 and 8 in science and writing. The CRT is a standards-based test, which means it measures specific skills defined for each grade by the state of Nevada. The goal is for all students to score at or above the state standard.
