Additional Information

TAM Corrections:
–
–
There is an incorrect sentence in the Reading Retake script indicating they have 70
minutes to take session 2. Students have up to half the length of a typical school day
to complete each session of Reading Retake. This will be corrected in the digital
version of the TAM on PA. (KB will be created as well)
K2 will be the carrier picking up spring materials instead of Logistics
International. This is a change from when the TAM was created and districts will be
notified by FDOE. (KB will be created as well)
