As a model school in the Toronto District School Board (http://www.tdsb.on.ca/Community/ModelSchoolsforInnerCities.aspx), AMG participates in the CAT 4 assessment. It is a benchmark assessment used at all Model Schools in the Toronto District School Board. According to the CAT webpage, it "... assesses the essential learning outcomes of the following basic skill areas: reading, language, spelling, and mathematics." More information (sorry about the font change), can be found on the CAT site: http://www.canadiantestcentre.com/CAT4/CAT4-About.php
