California Assessment of Student Performance and Progress (CAASPP)
This past spring, students from our district in grades 3-8 took part in the statewide administration of the California Assessment of Student Performance and Progress (CAASPP) program's Smarter Balanced assessments. These computer based tests have replaced the Standardized Testing and Reporting (STAR) paper-based, multiple choice test.
The scoring for these assessments are very different from those of the STAR tests. The results from the CAASPP tests cannot be compared to the previous results of the STAR tests. The CAASPP score reports provide parents, schools and state with valuable information on student performance on the new academic standards.
The new CAASPP reports will provide information in a different format from the STAR:
1. Student scale scores will be based on a 1000-3000 scale
2. Four new achievement level bands
- Standards Exceeded and Standards Met are considered proficient
- Standards Nearly Met and Standards Not Met are considered non-proficient
- To view achievement level bands for Language Arts and Mathematics - click on Achievement bands
3. Additional information on the areas that make up the student's overall scores
The California Department of Education (CDE), in collaboration with the Smarter Balanced Assessment Consortium and Educational Testing Service, launched a new website to help empower parents/guadians and families to become partners in their children's academic success.
Starting Smarter for the CAASPP
This family-focused website provides resources to facilitate parents'/guardians' understanding of the scores presented on their child's Student Score Reports. Using this website, families can become involved in their child's educational progress and:
- Learn more about the performance areas in each subject and grade.
- See sample test questions.
- Prepare for parent-teacher conferences with a useful downloadable guide.
- Access high-quality resources to support learning at home.
