STATE AND NATIONAL DATA
(Updated 3/7/12)

   
   

Established by the State Board of Education in 1996, the Vermont Common Assessment System (CAS) evaluates student performance in the state’s schools, based on Vermont’s Framework of Standards and Learning Opportunities, with the goal of improving teaching and learning. Statewide assessments include:

  • The New England Common Assessment Program (NECAP) mathematics, reading and writing assessments are administered in grades 3-8 and 11 each October. In 2012 the testing dates will be October 1-23 and pickup will occur on October 24.
  • The NECAP science assessment is administered to all students in grades 4, 8 and 11 between May 7-24, 2012 with pickup on May 25.

National Assessment of Educational Progress (NAEP)
Also known as "the Nation's Report Card," NAEP is the only nationally representative and continuing assessment of what America's students know and can do in various subject areas. NAEP does not provide scores for individual students or schools; instead, it offers results regarding subject-matter achievement for populations of students (e.g., fourth-graders) and groups within those populations (e.g., female students, Hispanic students). National and state NAEP results are based on a sample of such student populations.

To view more comprehensive NAEP results (including results from other states) as well as sample test questions and details of the assessment administration, visit http://nces.ed.gov/nationsreportcard/. OSL
