Preparation workshops to address NAEP

The National Assessment of Educational Progress (NAEP) will be administered Jan. 24-March 4, 2005. The NAEP assesses reading, mathematics and science in grades 4, 8 and 12. A sample of South Dakota schools statewide has been selected to participate.

Important informational workshops for participating schools will be conducted Oct. 18-21, 2004. Workshops are slated for Oct. 18 in Aberdeen, Oct. 19 in Sioux Falls, Oct. 20 in Pierre, and Oct. 21 in Rapid City. Each will include an update on expectations for the assessment and critical information for principals and testing coordinators. A representative from each of the sampled schools is encouraged to attend. 

To register, contact Stephanie Weideman at (605) 773-3783. stephanie.weideman@state.sd.us.
