Student Assessments

At Portage Public School District, we strongly believe in the value of a comprehensive assessment system. Our system is designed to collect meaningful data that enables effective problem-solving and the development of responsive instruction for all students. The assessments within our system serve multiple purposes, including:

  1. Informing instruction for all students, allows teachers to tailor their teaching strategies to meet individual needs.

  2. Identifying students who require additional support and opportunities for extension, ensures that every student receives the necessary resources to succeed.

  3. Monitoring the growth and progress of all students, enabling us to track their development and make informed decisions about their educational journey.

  4. Determining if we have met our intended outcomes, providing valuable insights into the effectiveness of our instructional practices, and allowing for continuous improvement.
