CSD Comprehensive Assessment System

Purpose: Supporting every student through meaningful assessment

At Cambrian School District, we believe that student assessments should help all learners grow and succeed. That’s why we’ve created a Comprehensive Assessment Plan — to make sure our assessments are not only useful, but also aligned with what students are learning in the classroom and what we value as a district.

Assessments help us answer important questions like:

  • Are students learning what they need to know?
  • How can we better support our teachers and students?
  • What programs are working well, and where can we improve?
  • How can we ensure every student is placed in the right classes?

By using a variety of tools throughout the year — including short check-ins and more formal tests — we gather helpful information to:

  • Support teachers in adjusting instruction based on student needs
  • Measure student growth and progress over time
  • Align our curriculum with state and national learning goals
  • Guide decisions about classroom technology and resources
  • Make sure all students have access to appropriate learning opportunities
  • Help our schools be accountable to students, families, and the community

This plan is designed to serve everyone in our learning community — students, families, teachers, and district leaders — by providing clear and reliable information about how our students are doing and how we can help them thrive.
