Every year, students in grades 3-8 take SCREADY and SCPASS tests. Although we are a primary school with students in grades PreK-2nd, our Montessori program houses some third graders at LPS who will participate in the SCREADY end of the year state testing. A schedule of testing days is included below.


The Clemson University Entomology department visited with our 3K students today!
