Early assessment is meant to jump start learning
The back-to-school process is kicking off a little bit earlier than usual this year at Farmington elementary schools. With two days of literacy assessments next week, Farmington teachers hope to get a head start on the new year. The idea is to bring in all elementary school students before the start of the school year so teachers can get a better idea of their literacy level – who needs help, and who might need some additional challenges.By: Nathan Hansen, The Farmington Independent
