My child came home and told me they took a CBA today, what is a CBA and how is it used?
The CBA is a Curriculum-based assessment designed to provide data to the teaching and learning staff to evaluate the effectiveness of the District curriculum. It also provides teachers with valuable feedback on how well the classroom instruction aligns to the standards (TEKS–Texas Essential Knowledge and Skills). The CBAs are administered three times per year within English-language arts, reading, math, science, and social studies in grades 2–11.
