Assessment

In all our Non-Public School Services programs, improving the academic performance of every student we serve is our top priority. Our programs begin with a preliminary assessment of all students. This pre-test is aligned to state content standards and grade-level expectations. It is matched in skills coverage and number of items by the post-assessment, which is administered at the end of our program.

Our assessments provide:

  • Accurate analysis of every student’s academic strengths and areas of needed improvement
  • A clear picture of the skills that need to be addressed with every child
  • The ability for our Teachers to see what skills must be addressed first
  • A roadmap for lessons to ensure skill mastery of state content standards

Our assessments are linked to software that automatically analyzes the pre-test data and generates reports that identify the level of skill mastery for individual students and groups of students. All Teachers are provided with a pacing chart that identifies the specific lessons to address with each student and small instruction group. This allows Teachers to provide individualized instruction targeted to each student.
