diagnostic testing
Learning gaps can happen for many reasons. It is important to spot them as early as possible, but it is never too late to work on closing them. Diagnostics are performed online and provide a detailed look into your child’s readiness. We use an intelligent assessment system which adapts the difficulty of the items according to each student’s performance on the assessment. This targets accurate reading or math abilities and helps them feel successful throughout the assessment process. Each test includes a detailed report, identifying what they have mastered and pinpointing where support is needed, with specific recommended activities. Results are aligned to Common Core standards.

math diagnostics
The diagnostic math assessments we use thoroughly evaluate each student’s mathematical understanding from K-7 foundational skills, through Pre-Algebra and Algebra.
K-7: comprehensive, diagnostic assessment of mathematics
Pre-Algebra: provides a detailed examination of students’ preparedness for entering Algebra I
Algebra: evaluates skills taught during the crucial Algebra I year
By employing revolutionary adaptive logic, these assessments maximize the information obtained about each student while minimizing test-taking time and anxiety. The detailed data captured provides us with a comprehensive picture of each learner’s strengths and weaknesses, as well as a prescriptive path for personalized learning.
