Assessment of where students are at

Aloha- WMS students will be able to show what they know starting next week. For the next few weeks we will use a screening tool (test) to find out where students are at academically. Our new tool is called NWEA. Students will be practicing on the format before they take Math, Reading and Science assessments.
