These formative assessments give valuable information to teachers so that appropriate instruction can be delivered to students. You will receive written notification and a Home Connect letter three times a year providing information about your child’s reading assessments and suggestions for what to do at home. Starting in January all 3rd graders will begin working on a reading portfolio. To complete the portfolio requirement students must have 3 proficient passages per 12 standards.

Completed Portfolio Retake EOG or RtA test If students are still not proficient they are enrolled in summer camp. If parents do not send child to camp – automatically retained in third grade While at camp the student can work towards completion of reading portfolio or RtA test If still not proficient the student moves to next school year with a “retained” label and served in either a 3/4 transitional class or an accelerated class.
