TRANSCRIPT
MESSAGE FROM OUR PRINCIPAL Preparing for State Testing As you may be aware, state exams are upon us and at our campus we have been diligently preparing our students for the STAAR assessments. These tests are critical tools for gauging the performance and academic growth of individuals as well as the school’s overall effectiveness in classroom instruction. It helps us compare our campus performance to other schools and districts across the state.
With this data we can identify improvements we can make to our curriculum and better serve our stu-dents’ individual learning needs.
Information on how to calculate the STAAR progress measure can be found in the “Calculating STAAR Progress Measures” document located at: http://www.tea.state.tx.us/student.assessment/
Sincerely,
Claudia Coronado, VVJH Principal

sidades individuales de aprendizaje de nuestros estudiantes.
