DISTRICT ASSESSMENT REVIEW COMMITTEE
CHARGE, MEMBERSHIP, AND TIMELINE
CHARGE
The Review Committee is charged with making a recommendation to the Superintendent’s Staff regarding
which math and literacy classroom assessments the district should require, which should be optional, which of
the current assessments might be discontinued, and which assessments might be added to provide data which
we currently do not have.
PROCESS
The members will collect and review staff input and data on all district mandated and optional assessments in
terms of the usefulness of the assessment to improve student learning. This will involve conversations within
the committee and with colleagues, review of student outcomes and potential redundancy of information.
Members will also consider state required assessments and the impact of the overall testing program.
