To understand your child’s strengths and weaknesses against the New Jersey Student Learning Standards. e.g. If your child receives a grade of 90% in math, do you really know the skills your child has mastered or what he/she still needs to learn?

To assist district staff with monitoring and evaluating present programming.

To clearly communicate the social-emotional components of learning within the framework of whole child development
