Why should your child take this test?
An achievement test measures progress in the basic skill areas and tells where a child stands, when compared on a national level.
Peace of mind
Assurance to parents that their child has made sufficient academic progress.
Accountability
Students gain by seeing a measurement of their progress and national percentile rank. Some families use the test to mark graduation to the next grade level in school.
Satisfy state requirements
Home school students in Oregon must take an achievement test in grades 3, 5, 8, and 10.
Report of progress
Sometimes a record of academic achievement is needed for providing to a new school, insurance company, or just as assurance for concerned onlookers.
Aid lesson planning
All test scores provided by Write Worthy are accompanied by a diagnostic profile that reports on the student’s strengths and weaknesses in specific skill areas. There is no extra charge for this essential report.
