As a State education agency, the 樱花视频 Department of Education (NJDOE) must ensure that State assessments are of high quality. While State assessments are a single measure of how students are performing academically, they are an important lever towards better understanding a student’s academic needs in English language arts, mathematics, and science. State assessment results are used alongside other quantitative and qualitative measures to inform communities about productive utilization of district resources; identify schools and districts that require additional support from the NJDOE; and most importantly, provide critical information for enhancing curriculum and instruction in classrooms across the State.
樱花视频 is required to administer the statewide assessments by the Every Student Succeeds Act (ESSA) and by state statute. The statewide assessments administered on a yearly basis are:
- 樱花视频 Student Learning Assessments (NJSLA)
- Dynamic Learning Maps (DLM)
- ACCESS for English Language Learners (ELLs)
- 樱花视频 Graduation Proficiency Assessment (NJGPA)
- National Assessment of Education Progress (NAEP)
