Monitoring Student Growth

CPSD administers multiple interim assessments during the school year to monitor student progress and inform instruction

to support the individual learner’s needs.

 

The Smarter Balanced Assessment (SBA) measures student progress toward college and career readiness in English Language Arts (ELA) and math. All Washington students in grades 3-8 and 10 take this assessment each spring. Students in grades 5, 8 and 11 also take the Washington Comprehensive Assessment of Science (WCAS). Results for these assessments provide families and schools with valuable information on their student’s progress towards meeting state

learning standards.

The state is phasing out the use of the term “meeting standard” to describe student performance on the ELA and math SBA, as well as the WCAS. What was previously known as “% Meeting Standard” (students scoring either a Level 3 or Level 4) is now described as “% of Students on Track for College-level Learning Without Needing Remedial Classes.” The state reports this as the percentage of students scoring a Level 2, Level 3 or Level 4 and are described as “% of Students Showing Foundational Grade-level Knowledge and Skills or Above.”

Your child’s results for both assessments are located in Skyward Family Access under their Student Portfolio tab. Information about district state assessment scores is available on the OSPI website (QR Code).

 

Clover Park School District Performance and Growth

on the SBA

CPSD results for the spring 2025 SBA for foundational grade level knowledge and above are: ELA, 62.7%; math, 52.3%; and science, 54%.

CPSD focuses on student growth, a metric which informs how well our students are improving their performance on state assessments from one year to the next and captures important growth that occurs for students on their path to proficiency. All schools target a building-wide average student growth percentile of 55, which is 5 points above the statewide average growth rate of 50.

Key Highlights

Districtwide, elementary student growth results have been on par with the state average.

6 CPSD schools exceeded the state average growth in both ELA and math: Beachwood, Meriwether,

Hillside, Lake Louise and Tyee Park elementary schools and Clover Park High School.

Another 6 schools exceeded the state average growth in ELA: Rainier and Park Lodge elementary schools,

Gravelly Lake K-12 Academy, Thomas Middle School, Harrison Preparatory School and Lakes

High School.

Community

CPSD is proud to partner with our local community to enrich educational opportunities and create promising futures for our students. We thank our many community partners for their collaboration in supporting the whole child.

CPSD honored two community members and four students with Washington Association of School Administrators (WASA) Community and Student Leadership awards. 

Deputy Mayor Mary Moss and Kimi Ginn received WASA Community Leadership awards for their work as part of the Lakewood Multicultural Coalition (LMCC). As president of the LMCC, Mary Moss uplifts student voice and leadership through listening sessions with Superintendent’s Youth Advisory Council students and her connections with the city’s Youth Council.

Moss also coordinated a conversation between middle school students and local police to remove barriers and foster greater understanding. 

Kimi Ginn is a passionate educator, community advocate for public schools and supporter of CPSD, who serves on LMCC. She supports diversity and student agency through LMCC efforts and her work on the city’s Martin Luther King Jr. Planning Committee. These events provide important opportunities to bring our diverse community together. She has also participated in listening sessions with Superintendent’s Youth Advisory Council (SYAC) students to understand their needs and find ways to support their leadership development. 

CPSD students Agnes Afia, Kasia King, Marlene lafeta and Chase Washington received WASA Student Leadership awards for their work as part of the SYAC and individual efforts in their schools and local community to build student agency and strengthen student culture and connections.
