San 2017 California Assessment of Student Performance and Progress Assessment Results On Sept. 27, 2017, the California Department of Education (CDE) released statewide results from the California Assessment of Student Performance and Progress (CAASPP). The CAASPP system, established on Jan. 1, 2014, includes the computer-based Smarter Balanced Assessment Consortium (SBAC) summative tests that measure student knowledge of California's English language arts/literacy (ELA) and mathematics standards. This report provides a summary of the 2017 CAASPP results for San. Student scores are reported across four performance levels (standard exceeded, standard met, standard nearly met, and standard not met) for ELA and mathematics. The SBAC ELA and mathematics summative tests allow students to demonstrate analytical writing, critical thinking, and problemsolving skills along with their knowledge of grade-level content aligned to state standards. Key Findings More than 255,000 students in San took the English language arts and mathematics Smarter Balanced assessments in spring 2017. More than 3.2 million students statewide took the English language arts and mathematics Smarter Balanced assessments in spring 2017. Based on overall results, nearly 6 out of 10 San students met or exceeded standards in English language arts/literacy, compared to about 5 out of 10 students at the state level. Based on overall results, more than 4 out of 10 students San students met or exceeded standards in mathematics compared to just under 4 out of 10 students at the state level. Disaggregated assessment results reveal that an achievement gap exists between language learners, economically disadvantaged, and ethnically diverse students. The third year of results of the summative ELA and math assessments show that students are performing similarly to the 2016 results and maintaining gains from the 2015 baseline results.
