Assessment & Standardized Testing
Student achievement is assessed regularly using a variety of methods, both formal and informal. Students take written tests, work on grade appropriate projects, collaborate in research, explore through experiments, etc.
We provide formal report cards three times per year. Our report cards provide a grade mark, an indication of effort in each subject, as well as behavioural and social development indicators. Cambridge Christian School participates in a standardized testing program in conjunction with sister Christian schools in Ontario. We are members of the Ontario Alliance of Christian Schools and join in their testing on a yearly basis. We use the Measures of Accademic Progress (MAP) to gage student learning in mathamatics, reading and language skills. Our graduates do well when they transition to high school and have been accepted into IB and Advanced programs.

One of the reasons we love CCS is because of the high quality, loving and dedicated teaching staff. They are teachers who love to teach and do so with joy and enthusiasm. Being excellent teachers, they make every effort in the classroon to ensure that our children are accommodated and challenged as necessary. We consider these teachers to be exceptional because of their willingness to volunteer their time so that our childrens' experience includes athletic, artistic and academic extracurricular activities.
