PARCC Results Spring 2018 Clinton Township School District

General Informa;on 2018 marks the 4th administra;on of the Partnership for Assessment of Readiness • for College and Careers (PARCC) and the third opportunity to compare year-to- year results. CTSD students took PARCC English Language Arts and Literacy Assessments (ELA) • in grades 3-8. CTSD students took PARCC Mathema;cs Assessments in grades 3-8 and End of • Course Assessments in Algebra I, Geometry, and Algebra II. Roughly 7 states and several other groups u;lized PARCC tes;ng in 2018. Other • states have moved to independent state tes;ng or a hybrid exam.

PARCC Performance Levels (NJ considers levels 4 and 5 to be passing) Level 1: Not yet mee;ng grade-level expecta;ons (650-699) • Approximate Ranges: • Level 2: Par;ally mee;ng grade-level expecta;ons (700-724) Varies by test form and problem type. • Level 3: Approaching grade-level expecta;ons (725-749) • Level 4: Mee;ng grade-level expecta;ons (750-809) • Level 5: Exceeding grade-level expecta;ons (810-850)

Evidence Statement Analysis Evidence statements describe the knowledge and skills that an assessment • item/task elicits from students. These are derived directly from the Common Core State Standards. School Evidence Statement Analysis Reports are two-page reports which • analyze the performance of the PARCC Evidence Statements at a state, district and school level for each opera;onal item on the Spring 2018 PARCC Assessment. The evidence statements are placed in order on the graph from most to least • difficult. Link to more detailed informa;on on the Common Core State Standards: • hVp://www.corestandards.org/

New Tes;ng for 2019 1. New Name! The assessments will be called NJSLA-ELA & NJSLA- Math. The number of units has been reduced, resulting in less minutes. The platform will remain the same. 2. Each year, the number of units and test times has been adjusted. 3. The new assessment is unique to NJ so state comparison data is expected to be available, however nationally normed data may not be applicable.
