Introduction

Why This Product?

Dear Home School Parent,

As a father of three children, I understand the difficulty of home schooling, especially young children. During the elementary grades, two important questions most frequently asked are, "Are my children performing academically at grade level?" and, "How do I know?" Many parents attempt to use the few evaluation instruments available on the market, utilize a variety of assessment techniques recommended by textbook publishers, or employ private assessment services. But, these products and services may be very expensive, and give only indirect information or simply compare one student to another.

Holding to the high academic standards that Basic Skills Assessment and Educational Services is known for, the ELO (Essential Learning Objectives) Quick Assessment is designed to fill the gap that achievement tests and other products leave. As a comprehensive assessment tool, it is useful for evaluating and tracking academic success. Using primarily an objective testing format and measuring precise learning outcomes, it delivers accurate, easy-to-read results. Parents are empowered to identify specific skills mastered as well as those the student does not possess.
