Amplify Program Updates<\/strong>
We are currently updating our resources to reflect recent changes made by Amplify.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \n
  1. Links:<\/strong> We are refreshing the Google Drive “Housing Documents<\/a>” to ensure the revised assessments are in the drive.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  2. Assessments:<\/strong> Revised assessments are being added to Forefront.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n

    Important:<\/strong> You will see dual versions<\/strong> of assessments in Forefront and the Google Drive for the remainder of the year. This ensures compatibility for those using Google Drive materials versus those printing the new versions from the website.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
