Analysis of 2009 Statewide Assessment Results
Vincent CaputoAssistant Superintendent
November 17, 2009
Overview of Statewide Assessments• New Jersey Assessment of Skills and
Knowledge (NJASK 3 to 8)– Language Arts, Mathematics, and Science
(Science in grades 4 and 8 only)
• High School Proficiency Assessment – (HSPA - grade 11) – LAL and Math
• End-of-Course (EOC) Biology Test• Biology Performance Assessment• End-of-Course (EOC) Algebra Test
Other Assessments
• DIBELS (Dynamic Indicators of Basic Early Literacy Skills) – primary grades
• InView section of the Terra Nova - grade 2
• NJPASS 9 and 10 – LAL and Math
• Future End-of-Course Tests to replace HSPA
New Proficiency Levels: Higher Standards for NJASK 3, 4
• Completely redesigned tests to provide better information on mastery of NJCCCS
• “Raised the bar”
• More students statewide in the “partially proficient” category
New Proficiency Levels: Higher Standards for NJASK 3, 4
• Example of impact: (grade 3 LAL)– 2008: 40 points; 16
correct for score of 200– 2009: 50 points; 25
correct for score of 200
