Little Flower embraces standards-based education as a way to align curriculum with instructional and assessment practices. The school follows the standards set forth by the Archdiocese of Washington. Student-centered learning is the focus of activity in the classroom as we strive to develop lifelong learners, true to their Catholic identity.
Parents of Grades PreK 3 and 4 year old, Kindergarten, 1st, and 2nd grade receive newsletters from their classroom teachers. Parents of students in Grades 4-8 have access to Rediker Parent Portal, an online reporting system showing student progress, current grades and assignments as well as missing assignments. Parents are informed regularly of curriculum requirements and assessment results. They work in partnership with the school and their involvement with their child’s education is woven into the educational process.
Standardized testing for Mathematics and Reading is administered three times a year (fall, winter, and spring) in Grades 2-8. Grade 1 is tested once in the spring to help students become familiarized with standardized testing. Testing is administered on computers and all results are available to parents.
Little Flower, along with the rest of the Archdiocese of Washington is accredited by AdvancED. For more information, click here.
