Assessment |

Assessment provides parents, students, educators, and policymakers with data that may be used for evaluating district, school, and student performance. Test results are utilized by parents, teachers, administrators, and board members to plan instructional programs that enhance educational opportunities for Bozeman students. The Bozeman Comprehensive Assessment System is designed as a parallel structure to the Montana Comprehensive Assessment System. |
