• A Mathematics and English diagnostic aligned with the California Common Core Standards

• For bilingual or multilingual students, an AAPPL (ACTFL Assessment of Performance toward Proficiency in Languages) to determine language proficiency levels across listening, speaking, reading, and writing domains on the ACTFL proficiency scale

The diagnostic process helps us personalize your child’s learning experience from the very start.
