LEAP2025

LEAP2025 is right around the corner, and we need your help! First, please see the information below about how the LEAP test is scored.

There are 5 achievement levels on the LEAP. Three of them are assigned points.

  • Advanced=150
  • Mastery=100
  • Basic=70
  • Approaching Basic=0
  • Unsatisfactory=0

Kids must score MASTERY on the test. Right now, only 8% of our kids are performing at the Advanced and Mastery levels. We need to get to 50%. Learners who consistently scored below BASIC were given the opportunity to participate in the Road to Mastery Program. There are two session remaining: January 12th and 26th. 

Our kids have made steady progress over the years. However, our progress has been slow. Every effort is being made to make large gains this school year. Some things include daily interventions, focused instruction, ACT Bootcamps, supplemental work, and tutoring.

Please discuss the importance of passing the LEAP2025 with a score of 750, the lowest level of “Mastery”, with your child.

We also use Benchmark Assessments to track learner progress throughout the school year. We need for all of them to take their Benchmark Assessments seriously. To emphasize its importance, all learners will receive a letter grade for each Benchmark Assessment in their corresponding classes. When requested, supplemental work can be given to those who do not perform well.
