ILA Student Assessment

The Board recognizes that Maine law requires each school administrative unit to use multiple assessment methods to measure student proficiency in the content areas of the Learning Results and the cross-curricular Guiding Principles. The Board also recognizes the value of assessment in informing and improving instruction.

Through this policy, the Board adopts and directs the Superintendent/ designee to implement and oversee an assessment system for the RSU 1 schools that will accomplish these objectives. The Superintendent shall be responsible for reviewing the assessment system for compliance with applicable statutes and Department of Education standards.
