We’re two weeks out from testing! Friday, April 10, 2026, is the big day. Children and teens need 3-stripes on their belt to be eligible. Not everyone is ready for every test, and that’s completely fine. If this isn’t your cycle, that’s great—keep training hard and aim for the next one.Testing applications will be sent home starting Monday, April 6. Please plan to turn them in on Monday, Tuesday, or Wednesday next week.
