First Immanuel Lutheran School uses the TerraNova Assessment to evaluate student learning each year.  This assessment tool was selected because it closely resembles instructional materials and content that reflects the national standards as well as First Immanuel Lutheran School and the Cedarburg School District’s curriculum.  In addition the test design is the same as the tests that are required by the State of Wisconsin.
