Jane Harrison, Assistant Superintendent for Instruction, said, “The teachers do an outstanding job of teaching the specific content while making it relevant for the students. The assessment is an important measure of whether the students know the material, but it is equally important that students know how to apply their learning in other coursework at high school, later in college or in their chosen career.”
