About the Tests
- In 2010-2011 Washington, D.C. used the District of Columbia Comprehensive Assessment System (DC-CAS) to test students in reading and math in grades 3 through 8 and 10, and science in grades 5, 8, and High School.
- The DC-CAS is a standards-based testing program, which means it measures specific skills defined for each grade by the District of Columbia.
- The goal is for all students to score at or above the proficient level.
- When test score data is not available, the reason may be a school:
1. Has less than 25 students and doesn't meet the OSSE minimum to report results.
2. Is an alternative or adult education school and testing is not required.
3. Has just opened and therefore has not taken the latest DC-CAS.
4. Is private and not required to publish results of tests taken (not DC-CAS).
