At Immanuel, we are truly concerned with educating the whole child. We are pleased to be able to offer our students a solid, faith-based education. Our kindergarten-eighth grade students take NWEA MAP (Measures of Academic Progress) tests three times throughout the school year. The majority of our students score at or above grade level, and with our growing resource program, we will continue to see growth with test scores. The table below shows the percentage of students per grade level who performed at or above grade level on MAP tests at the conclusion of the 2022-2023 school year.
Grade | Percent of Students On or Above Grade Level | ||
---|---|---|---|
Math | Reading | Language | |
Kindergarten | 85% | 80% | Test Not Taken |
1st | 68% | 82% | Test Not Taken |
2nd | 76% | 76% | 86% |
3rd | 62% | 79% | 82% |
4th | 79% | 79% | 79% |
5th | 59% | 59% | 77% |
6th | 80% | 87% | 73% |
7th | 75% | 56% | 63% |
8th | 83% | 78% | 87% |
In addition to MAP tests, teachers record data pertaining to academic performance from a variety of sources. Our kindergarten students participate in ESGI assessments and Fontas & Pinnell Benchmark Assessments for Reading Levels. The first-fourth grade students also participate in Fontas & Pinnell Benchmark Assessments for Reading Levels throughout the school year. Students take content area tests and quizzes, too. All of this data, along with our small class sizes and teacher observations, assist teachers in tailoring instruction to best meet the needs of our students.
