Please see below for 2024-25 District Assessment Calendars.

The “Every Student Succeeds Act” (ESSA) requires states to administer “high-quality annual assessments.”  The federally required tests include a reading or language arts assessment annually in grades 3-8 and once in grades 9-12; and a mathematics assessment annually in grades 3-8 and once in grades 9-12.  The federal required tests also include a science assessment to be administered once in the grade spans of 3-5, once in 6-9 and once in 10-12.  In addition, the State of Oklahoma also requires grade 11 students to complete a US History exam.

In an effort to remain compliant with the assessment requirements found in ESSA, but also to ensure Oklahoma’s students are receiving quality-time for instruction, the following state mandated tests will be administered in the spring:

• Reading/English Language Arts annually in grades 3-8

  • Writing portions will be embedded in the spring Language Arts tests

• Mathematics annually in grades 3-8

• Science once in grades 5, 8, and 11

• US History in grade 11

• A College and Career Readiness Assessment (such as the ACT or SAT) once in grade 11

  • The name of the test will be announced after the bidding process is completed.

As required by ESSA, beginning with information from the 2017-2018 school year, report cards must be posted annually on SEA and LEA websites. (ESEA section 1111(h) (1) (A), (B)(iii) and (h)(2)(A), (B)(iii)). At the core of the Oklahoma School Report Cards is the belief that all students can grow and all schools can improve. While no student report card tells the full story of a child, no school report card tells the full story of a school. Education is far more than a single score or letter grade, but it is important that families and communities can see both strengths and areas that need support and improvement.

For a complete explanation of the school grades, please read the "A-F Report Card Guide" provided by the Oklahoma State Department of Education.
