Assessment Scores

All of our assessment data is in for the 2019-2020 school year. I am proud of our students’ growth and achievement. Thank you to our faculty for their hard work and expertise in teaching our children.

A few highlights:

Iowa Assessments – Every grade 3-8 outscored both local and state averages in every subject area!

FAST reading assessment: 53% of our students showed aggressive growth (above expected) on the aReading portion of the assessment, which measures comprehension.

iReady Math – 100% of students met growth requirements in Math!

Tuition Balances

Please make sure all tuition and school fees are paid in full by the end of June. Outstanding tuition balances jeopardize the Family Tuition Plan grants for those who have received financial assistance. Per Board of Education policy, families with unpaid balances for tuition, daycare or aftercare after June 30th will not be able to enroll their child(ren) at St. Paul’s School for the 2019-2020 school year. Please contact Rose Strickland, Parish Finance Manager, at 322-7994 or davstpaulfin@diodav.org to make arrangements for payment. Past due balances will be turned over to a collection agency if not paid in full.
