Kerr Elementary School
garzaj: My daughter has not missed a day since she first started in kindergarten. The teachers and faculty are very responsive when it comes to any issue or matter concerning my child. Their are many extracurricular programs and activities to further engage a child's strength, weakness, interest, and curiosity. I am very happy with this school's teachers and faculty. They go out of their way to maintain the key incentive to learning in children which is... to make it fun!

About the TAKS
What is it?
The TAKS is an annual test used to measure a student's mastery of the state's grade-level academic standards.
Which Grades and Subjects?
Students are assessed in Grades 3 through 9 in reading, in Grades 4 and 7 in writing, and in Grades 10 and 11 in English language arts. Math skills are assessed in Grades 3 through 11, and students are assessed in Grades 5, 8, 10, and 11 in science, and in Grades 8, 10, and 11 in social studies.
How is it Scored?
Students receive one of two ratings: met standard or commended performance. The goal is for all students to meet the state standard. Students must pass the TAKS tests in grades 3, 5, and 8 in order to be promoted to the next grade, and in grade 11 in order to graduate from high school.
