Image Description: A flyer for Texas School for the Deaf - Middle School titled "Assessment Calendar for School Year 2026-2027" includes two separate tables listing NWEA MAP and STAR testing dates. The flyer features TSD logos in the top corners: a dark- and light-blue star with the text “Texas School for the Deaf” around it on the left, and a white horse with a light- and dark-blue mane on a star on the right. Icons next to BOY, MOY, and EOY include a growing plant, a snowflake, and a sun, respectively. A tiny star icon appears next to each STAAR testing date. At the bottom of the flyer, the words “Learn,” “Grow,” and “Belong” appear in dark blue, each paired with an icon: a book for Learn, a growing plant for Grow, and three people for Belong.
