Academic Assessment. DECA PREP will use the Northwest Education Association (NWEA) Measures of Academic Progress (MAP) and state-mandated assessments. Staff will examine MAP scores to draw comparisons to state and national performance. DECA PREP will define clear formative and summative assessment strategies, and more importantly, focus on the efficacy of instruction based on the data. Cumulative, end-of-year exams and capstone projects will be introduced to fourth graders. DECA PREP will not engage in social promotion. Students will be promoted when they have demonstrated mastery of academic standards and exit goals for each grade level. The use of summer intervention will afford struggling students additional time to meet the standards, as will tutoring and home reinforcement. Strict attendance policies have worked at DECA and will be emulated at DECA PREP. Make-up time requirements have served to hold students and their parents accountable for missed instructional time. Multiple layers of student and family support will be available for all students; however, students who do not demonstrate readiness will not be promoted.
