Starting Smarter
You are the expert on your child. Over the course of a school year, you receive lots of information on how your child is performing in school that combine to give you a more complete picture of your child’s academic progress. In addition to report card grades and class tests, you can use test score reports to better understand your child’s strengths and areas in need of improvement to start a meaningful conversation with your child’s teacher about how to better support learning at home.

Enter your child’s subject, grade, and area from the score report to get descriptions of the skills and sample test questions in each performance area.
Understanding the Score Reports and Areas
It’s natural for every student to have academic strengths as well as areas where they may need more support and improvement. The tests your child takes are meant to measure the most important skills in each subject. For all tests, the score reports are broken down into different performance areas—like reading and problem solving—to identify where your child is excelling or needs more support.
