Fall WIN Work Ready Test at J. L. Mann High School

Passing the WIN Work Ready test gives students the opportunity to earn a credential to show employers as a way to demonstrate readiness for the work force.  The test covers Math, Reading, Data and Soft skills.  Passing WIN will also earn the CCR credit that Greenville County students are expected to have before graduation.  The Fall WIN test is offered only to seniors who have not yet taken it or who need to re-take it.  WIN will be given on October 28th through October 31st at Mann.  The students assigned to the Fall WIN test received an email from Dr. Alsip letting them know their testing assignment.  Juniors will have an opportunity to take the WIN in the spring.  If you have questions about WIN, email Dr. Alsip at calsip@greenville.k12.sc.us.
