7th Grade Math Entry Diagnostic
Our Foundation
Diagnostic, Not a Grade
This isn't about points. It's about finding what you've mastered and where you need structural support.
Future Growth
7th grade builds on top of everything you learned in elementary school. Let's make sure the base is solid!
"Before we build the skyscraper, we must inspect the soil."
Architect's Protocol
No Calculators
We need to see your mental and paper construction skills.
Show Work
Draw it out. Carry the one. Show us the process, not just the result.
Manage Time
If you get stuck on a "beam," skip it and come back later.
