I have never been so unsatisfied with a school as much as roncalli. The teachers don't care if the kids understand and learn what is being taught there aren't books for reference on homework. I am looking to find a job out of pueblo so my kids can get a quality education, not what they need to obtain minimum wage work. I only pushed 1star because there is no way to rate them less.

About the tests


In 2011-2012 Colorado used the Transitional Colorado Assessment Program (TCAP) to test students' skills in reading, writing and mathematics in grades 3 through 10, and in science in grades 5, 8 and 10. The TSAP is a standards-based test, which means it measures how well students are mastering specific skills defined for each grade by the state of Colorado. The goal is for all students to score at or above proficient on the test. The TCAP replaced the CSAP as Colorado's state assessment program effective for the 2011-2012 school year.
