NWEA Testing

We will begin NWEA testing next week.  Our classes will test on Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday first thing in them morning. It is very important that your child is at school for the test each day.  The test are in reading, language and math and should only take about an hour.  It is also extremely important they they eat breakfast and are well rested.  We would like to thank you in advance for ensuring these things happen so that they can be the best they can be!

The test is designed to help teachers meet each and every individual student.  The results give us information about where they are performing.  It then tells us what concepts we need to be working on with them in order to advance their learning.  It's a great tool for teachers and we're very excited to utilize it as a resource to meet our students' needs wether they are below, at, or above grade level.  Here is a link with more information to answer any questions about the test.  As always, contact us with any other questions you may have.

This short video will also help explain a bit about the test.
