The program is used to test the s tu d e n ts ’ c o m p re h e n s io n abilities through co m p u te r g e n e r a te d q u e s ti o n s . A com plete set o f K-5 library books (specifically AR), with quizzes, is also av ailable to lone students. School Report Card - O ur percentages o f students m ee tin g o r e x c e e d in g the b e n c h m a rk s lo o k s g o o d . C urrently the different grade levels are compared with each other instead o f evaluating their ability to im prove from one y e a r to th e n e x t. We understand how this can affect a sc h o o l’s report card as a large p art o f th e ra tin g is determ ined by im provem ent from one year to the next. It was suggested that the council draft a letter to Representative G reg Smith (R-H eppner) that w e recom m end com paring each class to itself(i.e. the class o f ’05 to class o f ’05 rather than class o f ’05 to class o f ’06, etc.). A lso even though h e re a t lo n e , w e a re in c o m p lia n c e w ith C A M requirem ents, it appears that the C A M m ight go by the w ayside. We discussed the value o f CA M and several o f us felt that the C A M and the accom panying portfolios are v a lu a b le to o u r s tu d e n ts ’ education. W e a ls o d isc u s s e d the frequency o f taking the benchmark tests. This year we are doing it quarterly and the reason is to be able to use the t e s t to k n o w w h e r e th e students need im provem ent and m ore in stru ctio n . T he problem is that the aggregated results did not arrive soon enough after the student took the test. It w ould be a very powerful tool if the results were given immediately. We a lso d isc u s s e d attendance policies and what could be done to encourage p arents to m ake sure their children are in school. Je ri M c E llig o tt rem inded the council that site c o u n c il m e m b e rs h a d requested a plan to set up a student/parent conference with 11 -12th graders w ho have not passed the m ath C1M. State and District policy require two m ath credits to graduate. We w o u ld lik e to e n c o u ra g e students to continue to take m ath c la sse s w ho are not passing theC IM .
