Early Testing Information

It's early days for testing information, so some if it may change. I will update the information as it comes to me.

SBAC Information

• What Parents and Students Should Know
• SBAC Practice Tests
• Grades 3 - 8 and 11
• Testing in Jackson scheduled for March 13 - 15
• Testing in Rescue scheduled for March 21 - 24
• Makeups in Rescue and Carmichael - April 25 - 27

California Science Pilot Test CAST - (Replaces the CST)

• The test is computer-based (no longer paper-pencil like the CST was)
• Because this year, and more than likely next year, is a test of the test, no scores will be reported
• Scores are not reported, but the CAST will be counted in our participation reports
• Grades 5, 8, and 12 (might be different high school grade next year) will test this year
• At our testing sites grades 5 and 8 will take the CAST on Day 1 of testing and then proceed onto the SBAC. Grade 12 will take the CAST on the final day of testing at each site to ensure we have enough chromebooks and space available. 

Physical Fitness Testing (PFT)

• Grades 5, 7 & 9. Regional PFT Testing available this year.
• Tentative testing date of 2/22 at Grace Church in Jackson. More info to follow.
• More info about the PFT.
