Each year students in 3rd, 4th, and 5th grade take State Assessments in the areas of English Language Arts or ELA and Math. Fifth grade students also take a State Assessment in the area of Science. In the State of Ohio, the American Institute of Research or AIR developed the assessments and there are 2 sections of ELA, 2 sections of Math and 2 sections of Science. This means we will provide the students with 2 test sessions per subject. AIR has developed online assessments, therefore at Stevenson all students will use a chrome-book to complete the assessments.
Our students have been working all year and they are ready to show what they know! It is important for your child to be at school on time the day of the test. In fact, your help is needed in making sure students have a good nights rest and breakfast before the test. Don’t forget to give your son/daughter words of encouragement—“you’ve got this!, take your time and go get ‘em!”—all of it helps keep a clear and positive frame of mind!
Our testing dates for Spring 2022 are as follows:
3rd Grade:
ELA-April 5 and April 6
Math-April 19 and April 20
4th Grade:
ELA-April 7 and April 8
Math-April 21 and April 22
5th Grade:
ELA-April 7 and April 8
Math-April 21 and April 22
Science-April 28 and April 29
From time to time there are reasons why a small group of students may not be able to take the AIR assessment on the assigned date. If this is the case, one of your child’s teachers will write a note to you letting you know of the new test date.
If you have any questions please do not hesitate to contact your child’s teacher or principal Andra Kisner at 740-238-7130,
