What is the best time of year to conduct ISQ?
ISQ is very easy to administer, so any time during the school year is possible. Although the school may wish to avoid the holiday rush, or the testing maze at the end of the school year, ISQ can be and has been done during the last week of school. We suggest, however, that schools not conduct ISQ during the first few weeks of a new school year. ISQ should be done when students, parents, and new faculty have had a chance to accumulate sufficient experience with the current school climate.
