Regular academic testing is important for homeschool, private school, and public school parents in K-12 because it helps to know how well your child is learning and progressing in their studies.
-
Measure Progress: Testing allows parents to see how much their child has learned and if they are getting better at different subjects over time.
-
Identify Strengths and Weaknesses: Test results show which subjects their child is good at and which ones they may need more help with.
-
Adjust Teaching: When parents see areas where their child is struggling, they can change their teaching approach to better support their child's needs.
-
Set Goals: Regular testing helps parents set specific goals for their child's education and track their achievements.
-
Prepare for College or Work: As their child gets older, testing prepares them for future exams, like college admissions tests, and builds confidence in facing academic challenges.
By having regular academic testing, homeschool parents can make sure their child is learning well, understand their strengths and weaknesses, and provide the best possible education to help their child succeed.
