The Wisconsin Forward exam is a State-mandated exam to measure students' growth.
The Wisconsin Department of Public Instruction (DPI) States:
"The Wisconsin Forward Exam was administered in English Language Arts and Mathematics in grades 3 through 8, in Science in grades 4 and 8, and in Social Studies in grades 4, 8, and 10 and is designed to evaluate how well students are mastering the Wisconsin State Standards. The Forward Exam is a computer-administered assessment and includes multiple-choice questions, short answer questions, and a writing prompt in the ELA section. Accommodations and supports for students with disabilities and/or English language learners are built into the system so that the progress of students can be accurately measured."
Due to the COVID-19 situation, we are unsure at this time whether or not state testing for the 2019-2020 school year will be waived or be required to be taken when/if we return to the buildings.
