I already asked this about 2 weeks ago, but I received surprisingly few
answers, so please forgive this second post.

This will be my school's first year of statewide testing, by which the
school will be assessed.  We are a high school, and our 9th graders will be
put through 9 hourlong tests.  This will do a real good job of assessing our
feeder schools, but our school will be the one that get's assessed, and it
doesn't look good for us.

So I am curious about things that you may have done in your school to
motivate students to do their best on these kind of tests.  Particularly if
your testing system, like ours, does not allow for the students to be held
accountable in any way for their own results.

Thanks in advance,
