Testing News Update - Repost


Student testing assignments are complete.

Where and when will my student test?
Here is a link to my student testing assignment list.

Who will be testing?
Students in grades 3rd through 8th, 10th & 11th will be testing. (No testing for K-2 or 9th or 12th graders.)

What tests will students be taking?
Paper-pencil tests:
California Standards Tests (CSTs) for Science—grades 5, 8, and 10 (10th graders only take the science test.)
Smarter Balanced Tests:
English language arts/literacy and mathematics in grades 3–8 and grade 11

Where can we start practicing for these tests?
CAASP Practice Tests

CST Practice Tests
Grade 5 Science
Grade 8 Science
Grade 10 Science

Other ways to get your child ready include:
  • Typing practice 
  • Computer navigation practice
  • Reading long stories and other text on a computer or tablet screen
Please let me know if you have any questions.

Visions is required by the state to have over 95% of its students test, falling under that number endangers the Charter and puts Visions at risk for state compliance monitoring.
