Newell Christian School uses the CATs (Canadian Achievement Tests), which is administered yearly. This test allows for a comparison between educational performances of private schools and the Canadian Public system. It also allows our school to evaluate our educational standards on an ongoing basis as well as the opportunity to enhance our academic standards.
