Student Measurement

NHA understands that measuring academic success requires more than the use of teacher developed assessments and state tests.

Northwest Evaluation Association (NWEA) assessments are administered three times a year at all NHA schools to quantify both growth and proficiency. NWEA is a computerized test that adapts the questions presented to each student based on their previous answers.

This test structure and the method of administration allow us to target the individual needs of our students. The granularity of the information provided helps teachers to focus in on specific areas that require further instruction for the class as a whole, as well as student by student.

NWEA is a critical tool for teachers to ensure that their students’ academic needs are being met.
