Student Evaluation

Region 4 Student Evaluation provides products, professional development, and technical assistance to local education agencies (school districts and charter schools) to assist in meeting federal, state, and local mandates for evaluation, reevaluation, monitoring progress towards IEP goals, and in determining effectiveness of the education program. Region 4 provides collaborative opportunities for evaluation personnel to network to review current topics, share promising practices, make connections to community resources, and share information with colleagues.
