Where and When am I testing?
All students should be getting a letter in the mail from Visions this week with testing days, locations, times and particular tests. If you do not receive a letter by Friday, please let me know. If we have not already spoken about testing location, you are assigned to Grace Church in Jackson (3/13 - 3/15). Testing at Grace is in the morning from 9 to 12. If you need a change of location, please contact me immediately. The school is planning for equipment and staffing and needs to get assignments set asap. Thank you.
What Tests am I Taking?
All 3 - 8th and 11th graders are taking the SBAC/caaspp test. There is a Language Arts portion and a mathematics portion. Some students complete the testing in two days, often completing one subject per day. The tests are not timed, however, so many return for the third day to finish up. All 5th, 8th and 12th graders will also take the Science test. This test is scheduled for the third day of testing.

California Science Pilot Test CAST - (Replaces the CST)
- Grades 5, 8, and 12 (might be different high school grade next year) will test this year
- 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
