We are officially starting Winter Break on Monday, December 21, 2020. The Today’s Assignments page will resume changing lessons on Monday, January 4, 2021 with Day 72. Those going by their own schedules, may continue to do so during the break using the Daily Assignments page.
Discovery K12 now has assessment tests for homeschool parents to assess their children’s academic progress, potential problem areas, and grade placement.
Assessment tests are available for kindergarten through twelfth grade, and cover Spelling, Math, History, and Science.
The Assessment tests cover what students should know at grade level, and are based on what’s within the Discovery K12 curriculum.
Parents can also include the assessment test results on their homeschool transcripts. These are not standardized state assessment tests and instead are solely for the parent to evaluate their children’s academic progress and abilities.
Test results can be viewed instantly inside Discovery K12’s Parent/Teacher Account portal.
