Children’s Assessments

Teachers perform on-going assessments of each child through classroom observations and daily activities. Parent conferences are offered 3 times per year to acquire parent input and discuss the children’s progress.

When assessing a child, a variety of methods will be used such as parent questionnaires, classroom observations, and child accomplishment records. Children will be assessed in their classrooms, on the playground, and any other daily activity. Daily assessment will be done with three written assessments taking place throughout the year.

In order to keep the child’s records confidential, the teacher will follow the guidelines listed in the Katy ECEC Confidentiality Policy. Parents will be involved in the planning and implementing of assessments through a number of ways, such as a Getting to Know your Child Worksheet, parent conferences, and communication logs. Using these methods we will effectively communicate assessment information to families. Our teachers undergo training on our assessment tools at the beginning of their employment and again yearly. Also monthly staff curriculum meetings are held to discuss any changes that need to occur.
