Representatives from grades 2-8 met on Friday, September 14, 2018 to hear from two different vendors regarding benchmark assessments. During the fall 2018, this assessment team will pilot two products 1) iReady and 2) NWEA. These two products are well respected assessment platforms that allow teachers to monitor student performance toward meeting academic standards and offer an opportunity to set goals and measure student growth. The assessment team will begin administering these pilot assessments with students during the district’s assessment window in September and will meet again in October to review reporting features. The goals of this team will be to provide a recommendation to administration as to the new benchmark assessment to be implemented in grades 2-8 beginning fall 2019.
