1st through 5th grade students in Unit 5 began taking the Stanford Achievement Test (SAT 10) this week. In addition to SAT 10, 2nd grade students will also take the Otis Lennon School Ability Test (OLSAT).
These are annual assessments for all Unit 5 students that are used to measure student progress over the years. SAT 10 assesses what students have learned in the areas of reading, mathematics, language arts, science, and social studies. The OLSAT for 2nd graders is different in that it is designed to measure students' abstract thinking and reasoning ability. These are the same assessments we have used for a number of years in the district.
You will receive a parent report of your child's achievement on SAT 10 in a couple of months, usually before December. As always, feel free to post questions and I'll be happy to respond. :)
