Monitoring Student Progress

Monitoring Student Learning

• Student learning is assessed in multiple ways, providing a more complete academic profile of each student.  

• St. Luke Catholic School utilizes STAR assessments as a standardized test.  Students complete a 30-minute reading assessment and a 45-minute mathematics assessment online, four times each year.

• Teachers give regular feedback and use classroom assessment data to drive instruction. 

• Letter grades are earned beginning in 3rd grade, and reflect a balance of student mastery and responsibility.  

• The academic calendar is divided into trimesters at St. Luke Catholic School, with report cards posting at the end of each trimester.  However, teachers provide frequent communication on student progress toward learning goals. 

​​​​​​​Student Support

• Teachers implement instructional strategies to meet each
  learner’s needs, challenging every student to grow.  

• Instructional assistants provide needed reading and math support as determined by school assessments.

• St. Luke partners with the Woodburn School District Special Education Department to provide accommodations and service plans for students with diagnosed learning disabilities.

• Enrichment opportunities such as outdoor school, field trips, math competitions, book clubs, and middle school electives enhance the St. Luke academic experience.
