Since much of Massachusetts is expecting a winter storm on Tuesday, and with it the possibility of numerous school closings or delayed openings, the MCAS English Language Arts Composition test for students in grades 4, 7 and 10 has been postponed until Monday, March 25, the Massachusetts Department of Elementary and Secondary Education announced on its website. 

Originally this composition test was scheduled for Tuesday, March 19, but in an effort to make sure all schools administer the test on the same day, "all schools must administer the ELA Composition test to students in grades 4, 7, and 10 on Monday, March 25, including schools that are not affected by the weather," according to a memo from Elizabeth Davis, Associate Commissioner of Student Assessment.

If there is school on Tuesday, any ELA Reading Comprehension test sessions that are scheduled may be administered, just not the ELA Composition test.

Channel 7 predicts the Stoughton area will receive about 2 to 4 inches of snow from this storm before it changes over to sleet and then rain sometime around the Tuesday morning commute.
