ACCESSING ASSESSMENT INFO - In Aiken County schools, assessment is an important component of how educators and instructional coaches design teaching and learning that is centered and unique to your child. An information graphic was created as an information sharing tool to allow greater understanding of the scope of state and federal required assessments, as well as assessments our school system has chosen to use to identify strengths and weaknesses of your child’s base knowledge in real time, especially in areas of high importance such as reading and mathematics. To access the infographic and additional information on all assessments, please visit the Accountability & Assessment Department located under Departments > Accountability & Assessments.
