Sun West Assessment
The goal is for all students to achieve a comprehensive understanding, indicating appropriate mastery of the prescribed learning outcomes at their grade level. Most students will achieve a 2, 3, or 4 indicating incomplete to complete understanding whereas smaller percentages of students are likely to achieve a 1 or a 5, demonstrating either a lack of understanding or superior mastery. Students achieving at a Level 5 are likely to require enriched programs and students achieving at a Level 1 should be considered for a reduced program.
