Student Assessments
The Basilica School of Saint Mary's assessments give teachers, parents, and administrators a systematic evaluation to use to determine students’ strengths and weaknesses.
The school will administer standardized religion and achievement tests according to the diocesan assessment program. The Basilica School students consistently score above or at the diocesan average percentiles in all areas. Additionally, our students consistently perform above the national average on all standardized measures. It is our goal to ensure that all students achieve their God-given potential.
