Miss Conduct by Jasmanine Dixon Dear Miss Conduct, Why does the OCCT test have to be so hard? Signed, Test Hater Dear Test Hater,

The reason the OCCT test is so hard is because it is supposed to have all of the things on it we need to pass the grade.

Book Recommendation by Leandra LeForce One book I highly recommend is Percy Jackson: The Lightning Thief. It uses a lot of Greek mythology and lots of Greek words. It has demigods and magic. If you are into science fiction, this novel is for you. It’s also great for anyone who likes fiction. It is only a 4th grade reading level! So check it out at the library today!
