The Iowa Tests are achievement tests published by the University of Iowa and are part of the “The Iowa Testing Programs.” The two most commonly-given Iowa Tests are the Iowa Tests of Basic Skills (ITBS) and the Iowa Assessments. Both are achievement tests meaning they assess a child’s knowledge of what they have learned in school and are not cognitive or IQ tests. Despite the name, many states and private schools administer Iowa Tests.

DORA: DIAGNOSTIC READING ASSESSMENT

 As early as Kindergarten, we give you the option of testing your child each year.  Lab school believes it is your choice whether or not you would like this opportunity to gauge your Childs progress.  For those of you who choose this route, we offer the Iowa Tests.  Testing is done in Reading, Language, and Mathematics.  Beginning in 3rd grade, Written Expression is included.
The Forms  are equivalent and built to the same content specifications. They provide comparable interpretations and the same detailed reports at skill and item level, so educators and parents receive ideal support for pre- and post-testing models. 
The IOWA test helps to:

Monitor
Track growth in student performance over time for individuals and groups.

Indicate
Determine college and career readiness with comparisons to established benchmarks.

Evaluate
Find out the degree to which students have mastered core learning standards.

The IOWA Test Gives you Information to Tract Goals:

​Measuring Growth

The Iowa Assessments are built on a continuous vertical scale, Kindergarten to Grade 12.

High-Stakes Predictiveness
