TESTING
As directed by the Archdiocese of Los Angeles, standardized testing, the STAR Tests for grades JK – 8 is administered three times a year online. Students in grade JK – 3 take the Early Literacy test. Students in grades 2 – 8 take the STAR Math and ELA. Parents will be notified of testing dates, and are asked that medical and dental appointments NOT be scheduled during those dates. STAR test results are sent home to the parents four times a year. STAR test results are also discussed at Parent-Teacher Conferences in November. A.C.R.E. (Assessment of Religious Education), mandated by the National Catholic Education Association (NCEA) is administered to the 5th and 8th grades in December/January.
Entrance tests are given to new students before acceptance.
