State Testing - How can Senso help?
What is state testing?
State achievement testing is a series of standardized tests required by state law (RCW 28A.230.095) and federal law (Elementary and Secondary Education Act). The test results are used to make improvements in teaching and learning. Parents, students and educators also use the results to follow student progress, identify strengths and weaknesses as well as find any gaps within the curriculum and instruction.
These state-wide standardized tests are important because they help to ensure all public-school students receive quality education, no matter what school they attend, because they are measured to equal standards – thankfully! This test information assists districts and schools in improving instructional practices and curriculum. Not only that, but the results also give families valuable knowledge on how well their students are doing and if additional help is needed, how this can be achieved.
State testing can be stressful for all parties involved. Students worry about not hitting their desired grades and school staff have all the administration that comes with the testing.
