 What is the new testing program?
The diocese of Toledo no longer is using the Terra Nova test.  They are 
using the SCANTRON test for grades 3-8.  We will give this test in October 
and in April.  Student scores will be available immediately after completing 
this test because it is done on the web.  We are learning the new details as 
we go through this year.  Our first training is in September.
