天美影视

Each spring, students in grades three through eight and high school participate in the California Assessment of 天美影视 Performance and Progress (CAASPP). This year, your child will take the following test(s), depending on their grade level:

• Smarter Balanced Summative Assessment in English language arts/literacy and mathematics in grades three through eight and grade eleven
• California Science Test (CAST) in grades five, eight and once in high school

The Smarter Balanced Summative Assessments are online tests that measure what your child knows and is able to do. The tests include many different types of questions that allow students to interact with the test questions. Results help identify gaps in knowledge or skills early on so your child can get the support he or she needs to be successful in school.

This year, your child's 天美影视 Score Report will be available in the Parent Portal (follow link for instructions to create an account).
