2009-10 Assessment Instruments and Instructions
Every applicable 2009-2010 Florida Learn & Serve project agreed by the submission of its proposal and acceptance of its award to participate in assessment for this program. The assessment consists of conducting a pre- and post-survey of at least one class of participating students and also reporting on school-collected data on participating students’ academic performance, attendance, and conduct. The data elements are compared to other, non-participating students in the same grade(s).
All Pilot, Renewal, and Leader School projects must participate. District projects are invited to participate, but are not required to do so. Teachers of students in grades K-3 do not administer surveys, but do report on the data.
