Every year, all of our underclassmen (grades 9 - 11) take the nationally recognized Stanford 10 Achievement Test. This multiple-choice assessment features a new Bible Assessment Subtest.
The Stanford Achievement Test Series offers a state-of-the-art evaluation edition to measure student progress toward high academic standards. This assessement enables us to find out what students know and are able to do.
This technically excellent instrument provides the valid and reliable tool needed for objective measurement of achievement. Administrators will receive reliable data to evaluate progress toward meeting content standards as well as high expectations.
Teachers are then empowered to identify and help children who are at risk of being left behind. Parents will understand what their children know and can do, and how to help them.
