Assessment & Data

Standardized and classroom assessments provide students, teachers, and parents with information about how well a student is learning essential knowledge and skills in reading, writing, mathematics, and science. Data from these assessments also help teachers and administrators identify students who would benefit from additional or different learning opportunities, improve classroom instruction for students, identify areas of focus for school and district improvement efforts, and monitor progress toward the district goal of increasing academic achievement for every student.

Parents can view student assessment results through the parent portal, ParentVUE.

District-wide Assessments

aimswebPlus

aimswebPlus is a tool for teachers and educational teams in MTSS/RTI and special education contexts. aimswebPlus offers nationally-normed, skills-based benchmark assessments and progress monitoring integrated into one application across reading and math domains with additional add-on measures across dyslexia and behavior/social-emotional skills. aimswebPlus informs daily instruction and provides growth results to caregivers and district/state audiences in reading and math achievement using curriculum-based assessment and standards-aligned content for students in PreK through Grade 12. Additionally, aimswebPlus links to instructional resources to support growth in reading, writing, and math skills. aimswebPlus uncovers learning gaps quickly, identifies at-risk students, and assesses growth at the individual and group levels. 

English Language Proficiency Assessment (ELPA)

English Language Proficiency Assessments (ELPA) measure proficiency in English based on four areas: reading, writing, speaking, listening.

WHO TAKES ELPA?

All students identified as English Language Learners (ELL) must take ELPA, regardless of whether they have waived services.  A score of "Proficient" can exit a student from the ELL program.  Contact the Multilingual Department for more details.

Oregon Statewide Assessment System (OSAS)

State summative tests are designed to shine a light where Oregon’s education system is doing well, where Oregon can build from strength, and where more attention is needed in serving the learning needs of all our scholars. State test results matter; they are the only indicator we have that we can use to reliably understand how well Oregon’s K-12 education system is serving all of our students academically in three critical subjects. While state tests reliably measure student group learning in reference to Oregon’s challenging content standards in English language arts, mathematics, and science when participation thresholds are met, they do not identify all of the strengths, talents, gifts, or needs of any individual. And, they do not describe the full context of what a school is providing socially or academically to students. Data from different types of assessments are best leveraged when they identify learning edges and the next steps for district and state education systems (summative), classrooms (interim/benchmark), and students (formative). Oregon’s state assessment system continues to strive for balance by including a focus on culturally responsive practices which require a broad range of data sources in addition to academic assessments.
