2024-2025 Keansburg School District Assessment Information
to Parents and General Public
New Jersey school districts, charter schools, and renaissance school projects are required by statute (N.J.S.A. 18A: 7C-6.6) to annually notify parents or guardians by October 1 of any statewide student assessment or commercially-developed standardized assessment that will be administered over the course of the school year. If after October 1, it is decided that an additional commercially-developed standardized assessment will be administered, then the information shall be shared with parents as soon as possible (within 30 days of receipt of final reports for statewide assessments). If specific details are not yet available, districts may insert “To Be Determined” (“TBD”).
Key:
• Information about Available Accommodations and Accessibility Features refers to the manual that outlines the accommodations and accessibility
options available for the test.
• Required by State, Federal or Local whether the assessment is required or mandated by state, federal or local district.
• Sample Questions provides a link to sample items/questions for students to practice.
• Testing Time Allotted per Student is the maximum amount of time allotted to students to complete the assessment. Most students finish well in advance of the allotted time.
• Testing Window is the period of time in which districts administer the assessment. It is not the actual number of days it takes a student to complete the assessment. School districts can choose the specific days within the window to administer the test. Please inquire with your district about the exact testing dates of the assessment.
• Results Available refers to the date districts receive individualized student results from the assessment. These results should be distributed to students, educators, and families as soon as possible (within 30 days of receipt of final reports for statewide assessments).
Note: The assessments are listed in chronological order by testing window.
