This school may get better now that it has a new principal. But as of yet I am waiting. I calld my daughters teacher before school started to ask her to read the IEP plan. Three weeks into the semester she told me she just hasn't had time. After talking to other parents of kids with IEPs I guess this happens often. How can you follow an IEP if you don't bother to read it

About the tests


In 2010-2011 Nevada used the Criterion Referenced Test (CRT) to test students in grades 3 through 8 in reading and math, and in grades 5 and 8 in science and writing. The CRT is a standards-based test, which means it measures specific skills defined for each grade by the state of Nevada. The goal is for all students to score at or above the state standard.
