All students in grades 6 through 11 are expected to complete the Iowa Statewide Assessment of Student Progress (ISASP) tests. These tests will give us helpful information about how to help you build important skills. Students must demonstrate proficiency on the ISASPs in reading, math, language arts, and science. Our District will be assessed by the state based on this test, we want to be proud of our District.
