Testing
Students in kindergarten through 2nd grade are assessed using the Children's Progress Academic Assessment (CPAA), and students in 3rd through 8th grade take the CTP-4 (ERB) each spring. PK4 students are administered the DIAL-3 (Developmental Indicators for the Assessment of Learning - Third Edition).
Children's Progress Academic Assessment (CPAA)
The Children's Progress Academic Assessment is a formative assessment that is administered by computer several times a year. The CPAA is aligned with Educational Records Bureau (ERB) standards. ERB is the distributor of the CTP-4 assessment given in grades three through eight.
Comprehensive Testing Program (CTP-4)
Developed to serve the needs of high achieving students and schools that aspire to higher standards, CTP-4 is a rigorous test battery designed to collect basic information about student achievement.
Developmental Indicators for the Assessment (DIAL-3)
The DIAL-3 provides a positive, nonthreatening environment essential to effective early screening. Children complete fun, age appropriate tasks using bright, appealing, child-friendly materials. Stimuli are presented one at a time using a dial, manipulatives, or other materials.
