ILA - Student Assessment

The Board recognizes that Maine law requires each school administrative unit to use multiple assessment methods to measure student achievement and/or proficiency in the content areas of the Learning Results and the cross-curricular Guiding Principles. The Board also recognizes the value of assessment in informing and improving instruction. 

Through this policy, the Board adopts and directs the Superintendent/designee to implement and oversee an assessment system for MSAD #35 schools that will accomplish these objectives. The Superintendent shall be responsible for reviewing the assessment system for compliance with applicable statutes and Department of Education standards.
