In early December, students were assessed using Fastbridge and iReady. We would like you to understand why this testing is needed throughout our school district.

“What is Fastbridge testing?” some ask. Fastbridge testing is an online assessment tool that’s used to measure your reading and mathematics skills. It helps teachers and administration identify when or where you get confused, and then further support your education by helping you with those specific skills. This testing program is also designed to track your progress overtime.

Students were encouraged to use the following tips for success: get a good night's rest, eat a healthy breakfast, stay calm and focused throughout the test, and make sure to have a good testing environment that included a charged iPad, pencil, and headphones.

Testing was done at the start of the day and a PLC schedule was followed to not take too much time away from overall instruction.
