[Assessment_Advisory_Committee] Change to School-Imposed Test Window Guidance for OAKS Online Science and Social Sciences

I see no problem here, in fact I’m guessing that many/most districts will do their best to have Science testing completed before the Smarter window even opens.  The same seems likely for any district that decides to pursue any Social Science testing.
