Notes:
·         Used time suggested by PARCC but time on task estimated to be approximately 1/3 less, resulting in a gain of instructional time
o   Some children will use additional time   
·         Approximated all MCAS session at 2.5 hours each, except for grades 4 and 7 with long comp. estimated at 4.5 hours
Some children required additional time, including the use of the entire school day
