As you view each of the calendars, please note that they are coded as follows . . .
State required (green)
These assessments are mandated by the State of Wisconsin. They are:
- administered to students in Wisconsin public schools
- used to determine what students know and can apply in different areas of study (math, science, language arts, etc.)
- used for the statewide school and district report cards
- Locally, we use them to guide curriculum development and instruction

District administered (purple)
These assessments are used locally by DASD. They are:
- a means of understanding where our students are performing in that moment
- typically shorter and done multiple times during a school year - like a doctor checking "vitals" each time you go to the doctor's office
- used immediately by teachers as a way to know exactly where students are for upcoming work in the classroom
- used to show learning growth in a given period of time (i.e., fall to spring of a given school year)
iReady Assessment - given three times a year as a measure of student's academic progress.
