Terra Nova Test Scores
Spring 2008

We recently received the annual testing results for our  students.  In March, these students completed a battery of tests called the TERRA NOVA Multiple Assessment Test.  The test contains two major parts: a cognitive ability test, an updated version of IQ tests from the past, and an academic achievement test.  Unlike the standardized tests we might remember, TERRA NOVA calls for students to do more than just fill in “answer bubbles.”  A portion of each test asks students to use data and apply concepts as well as to compose non-multiple choice answers.

We can really be proud of our students’ achievements on this test!  The results indicate in a statistical way something that we, as a school community, have known for a long time.  We have an excellent school program that prepares our students extremely well.
