Iowa Test of Basic Skills

We have recently received the results of this year's Iowa Test of Basic Skills. As you recall, each year we test students from third through seventh grades. Our practice has been to assess the testing results, present overall performance data to the Board of Education and then provide individual information to the parents of each child tested. Watch for that in the near future.

Report Cards

Children will be receiving their report cards today.
