Suzette Wordell, principal of Fort Barton School in Tiverton, Rhode Island, turns to local and other standardized assessments like DIBELS for benchmarking and progress monitoring data, which “helps to give us a picture not only of their achievement, but areas that need remediation in a timely manner. These assessments also inform instruction immediately, so our teachers can reach out and help every student learn.”
Melissa Stone, administrator of Crawford AuSable Schools in Grayling, Michigan, sees value in local common assessments as well as attendance, which she views as a measure of student growth. “If the student has poor attendance, then what did the teacher do to encourage the student to attend or the parent to be sure the student attended?” Stone asks.
What tools does your school use to measure student achievement?
It is the website that we are
It is the website that we are knowing about this homepage online when yo u know that we can generate simoleons.
I would say that attendance
I would say that attendance for measuring achievements is a matter of opinion. Students can miss classes for various reasons and still keep up with classmates. What can help here is individual approach according to payforessays.org but teachers have so many students that they physically cannot track and give special motivation to everyone.
Measures of Student Achievement
I am principal of Winchester Avenue School in Martinsburg, WV. We use multiple measures for student achievement ranging from teacher made assessments, Pre-tests / Mid-year tests / Post-tests that are part of adopted curricula, STAR Early Literacy / STAR Reading / STAR Math (Renaisance), West Virginia's Acuity Benchmarks in Reading and Math, and West Virginia Writes.
The benchmark assessments and STAR assessments predict how students will score on the state assessments in the spring, but they also guide instruction. We utilize the date from these and other progress monitoring measures to determine interventions for students and to plan instruction in the classrooms.
