Revere is a founding district of the Massachusetts Consortium for Innovative Education Assessment. Since its founding, MCIEA has been governed through collaboration between local union presidents and district superintendents from each member system.
We continue to work together to build an effective alternative to MCAS testing and the top-down school accountability dating back to the time of No Child Left Behind. Because the consortium is believes that schools and students are more than test scores, we train our teachers to develop performance assessments which authentically measure student knowledge and skills within the classroom. We also use staff and student surveys and administrative data to generate a school quality dashboard, leading to a holistic view of a school’s strengths and weaknesses across multiple domains.
We encourage you to explore the School Quality Dashboard for any of Revere’s schools. Our school improvement councils use this information to set our improvement goals based on what we think schools should be.
For more information visit mciea.org or contact RTA’s appointee to the governing board, Erik Fearing, past association president.
