Standardized Testing and Assessments
Readiness Tests
Kindergarten Readiness and School Readiness tests (Brigance Screening) are administered to students at the end of Pre-Kindergarten and Kindergarten. Tests are hand scored by teachers, and the results are provided to parents. Information from these tests assists in planning instruction for students as they move into Kindergarten and Grade One.
Achievement and Aptitude
Students in grades 1-8 take the MAP Growth assessments. We are proud to say that we consistently score above the national average.
MAP Growth is the most trusted and innovative assessment for measuring achievement and growth in K–12 math, reading, language usage, and science. It provides teachers with accurate, actionable evidence to help inform instructional strategies regardless of how far students are above or below grade level.
Religious Knowledge
The National Catholic Educational Association (NCEA), Assessment of Catechesis Religious Education (ACRE) is administered annually to students in Grades 5 and 8. ACRE provides information about the students’ faith knowledge and attitudes toward God, Church, family, and friends. ACRE does not provide parent reports.
