CAASPP Practice Tests

Parents, Field tests for the new CAASPP (California Assessment of Student Performance and Progress) will be taken by our students in April and May 2014. There will be no scores recorded of these field tests. The CAASPP is aligned to the Common Core standards and will be launched next year in the 2014-2015 school year. I recommend that you view the practice tests in Language Arts and Math with your child. Click on the link below and log in as a guest to get started. Have fun!
