Below are key considerations to assist STCs in planning local assessment activities for the SY 2022-2023.
- The STC should work with school and district leaders to create a local assessment calendar that accounts for state-mandated, college entrance (e.g., ACT, SAT), Advanced Placement (AP), formative, and local benchmark assessments.
- Share the district calendar with district leadership, all staff members, parents, and students.
- There should be a clear training plan for SchTCs, examiners, and other staff members. • Plan technology early in the year to ensure enough devices and ancillary equipment is ready for testing.
- There should be clear communications with other departments to prepare for and set up accommodations.
- Each assessment has a process for student and test setup before administration. Students should receive training on the format of the assessment.
- The district should have a plan for reviewing and sharing reports. Access the Assessment Plan Template here or download it from the For Educators webpage.
