Assessment

St. Francis teachers evaluate student progress in a variety of ways.  Assessment tools are created to give both students and parents a report of their child's progress.  These assessments are also used to provide teachers with important feedback on how to change their instruction to reach all students.   Below are a list of tools that teachers may use to report student's progress:

• Report Cards
• Progress Reports
• Notes attached to Assessments
• Standardized Assessment Reports (Forward Exam, ACT, ACCESS, MAP, STAR)
• Portfolios or Exhibits or Student's Work
• Phone Calls to Parents
• Evaluated Projects or Assignments
• School Web Pages
• Parent-Teacher Conferences
• Student- Led Conferences
• Student-Teacher Conferences
• Personal Letters to Parents
