Annual Assessments

  • Overview
    • Standardized testing for grades Pre-K through 8 will take place on May 7th and 8th.
    • These tests help determine if students are performing at grade-appropriate and age-appropriate levels while also allowing Enlightium Academy to evaluate the effectiveness of its teaching methods. 
    • The results provide insights into students’ strengths and areas for improvement but do not impact their grades. 
    • Makeup days are not available for missed tests. 
    • For state-specific requirements and more detailed information please visit the Knowledge Base
  • Iowa Complete
    • The Iowa Complete is a standardized achievement test that assesses students' skills in English, math, history, and science. 
    • Testing will take place on Zoom over two days, and students should plan to participate on both days at their designated testing times. 
    • A parent or trusted adult must be present during testing. 
    • This test is recommended for students who live in a state where standardized testing is required. 
    • For more details on the Iowa Complete Assessment, please visit the Knowledge Base.
  • IXL
    • The IXL assessment evaluates students' skills in English and math but is not a standardized test. 
    • The IXL Spring assessment is flexible, does not require Zoom or specific testing times, and can be taken over one or two days during the fourth quarter. 
    • A parent or trusted adult must be present during testing. For more details on the IXL Assessment, please visit the Knowledge Base.

Student Council Event

  • All Enlightium students in grades PreK-12 can look forward to a friendly competition between peers, focusing on several different categories to choose from. Instead of focusing on a theme, we would like students to incorporate the Enlightium logo by hiding it in their design. 

  • More information about each category will be shared soon!


Virtual Retreat

Bible Studies

  • Bible studies are a time for students to gather together and experience the life-transforming power of God’s Word. Our studies consist of prayer, the Word, and fellowship. This year we are going through the book of Philippians.

  • All students in grades PreK-12 are encouraged to participate in Enlightium's Bible studies. An Enlightium staff or faculty member will guide the time.

  • Invitations, including the link to the Zoom meeting, will be sent to student and parent emails, along with text messages. These invitations will go out 30 minutes before each study.

  • Students may not be able to enter the meeting if they are significantly late (15 minutes or over).

  • Bible study dates and times can be found here.


Student Chapels

  • Student chapels are a time for students to come together in worship and praise from around the nation and world, and grow in the knowledge of Christ by the power of His Spirit and Word.

  • Students get opportunities to pray, read Scripture, and even help lead songs of praise while a member of our staff or faculty delivers a message. Our messages this year focus on our theme from Philippians, Peace Beyond Understanding (Phil. 4:6–7).

  • Student chapel dates and times can be found here.
