The importance of assesments
Assessments provide educators with the information they need to make essential instructional decisions. In the same way that a scientist may collect and analyze water samples to determine the quality of our streams and lakes, teachers and administrators use state tests, performance assessments, and other forms of assessments to measure how well students are learning and determine how best to support them moving forward.
How we assess each child
A balanced assessment system employs a variety of measures and types of assessment to provide the most useful information to students, parents, teachers, administrators, legislators, and the public.
-
Formative assessment provides immediate usable feedback on student learning.
-
Interim (or benchmark) assessments serve as “checkpoints” for longer-term student progress.
-
Summative Portfolio assessments allow a look back at the entirety of the instructional period. They provide valuable information for planning the next instructional year and beyond.

Summative Portfolio
Setting up your child's portfolio early in the school year will save you time in the long run. Continuing to add to it throughout the year will alleviate much stress at year-end. *Helpful Hint! Place plastic page protectors in your activity sections and file brochures, photos, programs, etc in them throughout the year. That way you have everything in one place and you can create pages for them over time.
Mandatory items to be included in portfolio:
