Benchmark Assessments

To ensure that each student’s learning is on track and to tailor instruction to their needs, we utilize a variety of assessments throughout the school year including NWEA Math & Reading (Grades K-8) The NWEA assessments provide valuable insights into students' academic progress in math and reading. These assessments are given three times a year to help measure growth and inform instruction, allowing teachers to adjust lessons and resources to meet each student's individual learning needs.
