High School question

Post by Tansy » Mon Mar 24, 2014 6:29 pm

This was posted over at the FB page and got no responses, can anyone here chime in?
Thanks,

High School question - Are there any formal "assessments" in HOD's High School guides? We are praying about being part of a charter school in which I am allowed to use my own curriculum, but any assessments have to be done in front of and graded by a resource teacher.

There are tests in certain subjects like math and maybe spanish and logic. I know in the World Geography guide there are tests in the science curriculum, but Carrie didn't schedule the tests. Is that what they mean by assessments. So any tests the students take they have to take in front of their teacher?

Yes, from what I understand, the school is "accredited" and in order to maintain their accreditation, they want an unbiased grader for assessing progress and giving grades. I didn't know if the high school guide has some types of assessments written into the guides or if I would have to write my own.

The science would be super easy to add and take in front of a resource teacher. You can just run off the tests from the CD.
