Assessments are important. Schools perform assessments on their students to identify areas of strength and areas that need attention. We believe assessments inform instruction and provide the road map for student success. There are state mandated assessments (ELA and Math State Assessment and KRA), meaning the Ohio Department of Education requires schools to give these assessments. and there are building assessmesnts (administered in specific Lakeview buildings: elementary, middle school, or high school); grade level assessments (assessments administered in specific grades); and classroom assessments (administered by the individual teacher in their classroom).
These assessments can be administered in group or class settings and can be given once a year (except for 3rd grade ELA which is given in the fall and the spring), 3 times a year, or weekly. Results can take many months before data are available; a few weeks, or immediately.
Third grade ELA OST state assessments can be given paper-pencil or online. NWEA and KRA are administered online.
We believe when looking at young learners, it is important to assess in multiple formats. The data collected provides a comprehensive picture and confirmation of the areas that a student excels in and in areas that need more attention.
