About
DIBELS
Currently, the DIBELS Data System allows school personnel to enter
and monitor student reading performance on the DIBELS measures across
years for grades K-6, and the IDEL measures for native
Spanish-speaking students for grades K-3. In the future, the system
will expand to accommodate additional assessments and instructional
information
The West Virginia Educational
Standards Test (WESTEST)
|
In West Virginia, students in grades three through eight
and in grade ten take the West Virginia Educational Standards
Test (WESTEST). The WESTEST, which replaces the SAT-9, is an
assessment that measures student achievement of the West
Virginia Content Standards and Objectives (CSOs). The test
provides information about students' academic strengths and
weaknesses by performance level descriptors. WESTEST
identifies students’ levels of performance in the content
areas of reading/language arts, mathematics, science and
social studies. Students’ performance is compared to
academic standards rather than to the performance of a
national sample of students.
AYP is determined by the WESTEST and either attendance or
graduation rate.
