Aynor High School students joined with their peers across the State of
South Carolina this week for state-mandated testing. The High School
Assessment Program (HSAP) measures students' knowledge in the areas of
writing, English language arts (ELA) and mathematics. The three-day
test, which all second year high school students take, comes to a close
today (Thursday, April 18). South Carolina law mandates all public
school students pass an exit examination as one requirement for
receiving a high school diploma. Close to 200 Aynor High students were
tested. In an effort to help AHS students do their best, they were
treated to breakfast each morning prior to the start of their exam and
given ice cold water as a treat to help them stay focused. HSAP results
are usually reported back to schools by mid-summer.
