4. Smarter Balanced Assessments

5. Smarter Balanced Assessment Facts  The technology-based Smarter Balanced Assessments in Mathematics and English Language Arts measure progress toward the more rigorous California Common Core Standards.  The Common Core State Standards in English Language Arts and Mathematics define what a student needs to know and be able to do to be college and career ready for the 21 st century.  Shifts in Education: Shifts in curriculum standards and instruction inform assessment and accountability shifts. We see these tests as one of many ways to gauge our progress.  This is a baseline year and this year’s results cannot be compared to previous years’ results. However, SBAC is a vertically-aligned assessment that allows measuring growth from one grade level to the next.  These tests include a wider variety of questions, requiring students to explain how they solve problems, think critically, reason with evidence, and write analytically.

29. Student Score Reports  Scores should NOT BE COMPARED to results from the Standardized Testing and Reporting (STAR) program because they are based on different academic standards  These results are ONLY ONE OF MANY MEASURES of academic performance: classroom tests, assignments, report cards, teacher conferences, grades, projects  These scores are a starting point -- a BASELINE for the progress we expect students to make over time
