Testing

All Catholic elementary schools in the Diocese of Phoenix administer The IOWA Test of Basic Skills.  St. Jerome also administers benchmark assessments to identify student needs.

The Iowa Test for Basic Skills is administered in the spring.  Teachers are able to analyze the data collected from this assessment to enhance learning and make informed decisions on curriculum.  Benchmark assessments (NWEA Map skills) are administered 3 times per year to identify growth and areas of improvement.
