Why? Because assessment meets intervention
Effective K–12 assessment practices provide educators with valuable data to pinpoint students' strengths and weaknesses. By identifying these areas, teachers can create targeted interventions that address specific learning needs, ensuring each student receives the support they need to succeed. When educators move away from one-size-fits-all intervention and toward personalized strategies, student growth and achievement booms. The Assessment Collaborative can help you make that happen.
