Renaissance Place Testing (K-3)
The summer school program utilizes its own Renaissance Place web site for assessments. Please provide an internet shortcut to the URL below on the computer stations being utilized for summer testing. Name this shortcut appropriately as to not confuse it with existing shortcuts to your school's Renaissance Place instance. Students will log in utilizing their assigned summer school ID. This ID can be printed on a team roster by the site secretary allowing the teacher to log each student in. The password assigned to each student is abc (all lowercase). Upon beginning an exam, the teacher will be prompted to provide the monitor password which is admin (all lowercase).
Each site will be able to log in with a teacher role using their summer school site ID assigned by the summer school student management system. The initial password will be summer2022. The site login information will be sent via email to the site principal prior to the beginning of summer school. The Renaissance Place STAR testing site will be set up as one school named Partnership of Summer School Education. From the summer school enrollment portal a data extract will be created to set up a class for reading and a class for math per grade level per summer school host site. It is recommended the site secretary use the username provided to print and sort assessment results and provide to teachers.
