K–12 Assessment Solutions


As a public service organization within the Mary Frances Early College of Education, K-12 Assessment Solutions functions as a bridge between research and practice. Our goal is to improve learning and achievement while building relationships with leaders in education and business across communities.

We have the expertise to provide teaching, learning, and assessment solutions, including assessment and item development, and facilitation services supported by academic research.

We are not a “one size fits all” organization. Our clients—departments of education, schools, and districts, among other business entities—trust us to provide them with customized solutions to meet their needs.
