Assessments: Sherman Academy does not believe that TESTS and ASSESSMENTS alone reflects the true level of a student’s knowledge and academic ability. We do NOT stress tests or labeling students with scores of 1-5 or grades of ABCDF. We do provide pre and post assessments which are for purposes of identifying starting points for learning and to showcase and measure growth and potential only.
