Thank you, Mr. Chair. As Minister Ootes mentioned, all of the eight school districts are doing some type of testing now. There's not one district that's not doing it. But in light of our latest initiative on school improvement, we are going to put testing and evaluation as a part of our school improvement projects next year. In other words, they'll be linked together. But at the moment, all are doing something and the majority are doing the Alberta achievement, which is based on classroom results for the grade. The department is currently working on a directive for assessment, and working with representatives in each of the eight school districts. Thank you, Mr. Chairman.
