| Iowa Test of Basic Skills (ITBS) |
|
The Westfield School utilizes the Iowa Test of Basic Skills (ITBS) to test students at grade levels 3 - 8. The ITBS is a national standardized, norm-reference test which provides an in-depth measure of important educational objectives in the areas of reading, language arts, mathematics, and social studies. It provides reliable and comprehensive information both about the development of students' skills and their critical thinking abilities. The ITBS scores measure the grade equivalency as well as the comparison of the students' performance to the performance of other students nationwide. Please note that the ITBS was not conducted during 2020 due to school closure for the COVID pandemic.
Westfield utilizes the ITBS scores to identify strengths and weaknesses of individual students, make appropriate adjustments to the curriculum in order to maximize student achievement, and provide feedback to students and parents.

| Core Total Score |
| The Core Total score is the average of the Reading, Language, and Mathematics test scores over the following areas: Reading (Vocabulary and Reading Comprehension), Language (Spelling, Capitalization, Punctuation, and Usage/Expression), and Mathematics (Concepts/Estimation, Problem Solving/Data Interpretation, and Computation). |
| Grade Equivalent Score |
| The Grade Equivalent score represents the typical performance of students tested in a given month of the school year at a particular grade. For example, Westfield's Class of 2028 (8th graders in the 2023-2024 school year) overall grade equivalent score of 10.4 on the Core (Reading, Language, and Math) reflects the score that students finishing the fourth month of 10th grade would likely score on the Core test. The grade equivalent score helps to estimate the students' developmental status or year-to-year growth. Please see the graphs above for more information about Westfield's Grade Equivalent scores. |
