Iowa Assessments
Between April 2 and April 13, 2018, DMPS students in grades 3 through 11 will be taking the Iowa Assessments (formerly known as the ITBS or ITED).
Measuring academic achievement with the Iowa Assessments provides information to help our students succeed. The Iowa Assessments make this possible by providing detailed information about achievement in content areas including reading, mathematics, and science.
The Iowa Assessments measure student growth and progress from year to year. In addition, they provide information about students’ academic performance relative to their school, the district, and the nation.
Information gained from the Iowa Assessments helps teachers identify students’ strengths and areas that may need additional emphasis. The assessment data enable sound decision-making and provide a focus for teachers to review and improve their instruction. The results of the assessment will help prepare our students for the next steps on their educational paths.
