Subject: QUERY - ERB's and their use
Greetings everyone,
I have several questions regarding your school's use of the ERB:
1) Do you administer the ERB? In what grades? In what setting?
Teachers give the test in classrooms in grades 3-8, spring =
administration.
2) Have you ever considered doing away with the ERB test or is it an =
essential piece of your curriculum?
It is our only objective testing with an independent norm.
3) Do you provide any pre-ERB advice, prep to students?
No.
4) Do you mail home scores to parents? How do use ERB scores in your =
school?
Beginning this year. =20
We look at trends across the administrative summaries, and then patterns =
for individual students at the lower percentile ends.
