			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>NWEA tests are well on their way to being completed for the Spring-term.</p>
<p>The skills assessed by the NWEA align fairly well with the SCIS curriculum.  Thus it is a useful external assessment tool for use in conjunction with other internal and external assessments to gauge the effectiveness and consistency of our programs.</p>
<p>On the individual level, parents can use the results to watch their child&#8217;s growth over time.  Additionally, teachers are able to use the results as one means of assessing a child&#8217;s learning needs.</p>
<p>For more information please refer to the NWEA Parent Toolkit and the information letter that will accompany your child&#8217;s results.  These items can be found by on this site under Helpful Info/NWEA or by clicking <a href="http://iweb.scisdragons.net/hqlowerschool/helpful-info/nwea/" target="_blank">here</a>.</p>
