Grade LevelPerformance Standards
Performance standards for math and reading knowledge and skills tests are based on
content expectations consistent with previous benchmarks.
Final performance standards were adopted by the State Board in October 2005.
Grade Level Performance Standards
Reading and Literature:4th Grade: 223 (Exceeds) 208 (Meets)
6th Grade: 233 (Exceeds) 219 (Meets)
7th Grade: 236 (Exceeds) 226 (Meets)
Mathematics:4th Grade: 223 (Exceeds) 208 (Meets)
6th Grade: 233 (Exceeds) 219 (Meets)
7th Grade: 236 (Exceeds) 226 (Meets)
Writing Testing Schedule
• Grades 4, 7, & CIM students: – January 9 - February 24
– Or –
• CIM students only: – April 14 - May 5.
• Senior Writing Retests on TESA– Either October 31 – November 18
(Early Graduating Seniors Only) – Or April 14 to May 5
Approved Grade LevelPerformance Standards
Writing Composite Scores:
7th Grade: 50 Exceeds 40 Meets
4th Grade: 40 Exceeds 32 Meets
A score of three or higher in each of the
Following traits:
Ideas and Content Sentence Fluency
Organization *Conventions
* Conventions score doubled for 7th grade.
• Students at Grades 9 and 11 may test once during one of the two regular windows; Grade 10 students must test once during one of the two windows
• Grade 9 students should only be tested if they are taking CIM-level classes and have produced work that shows they are capable of meeting CIM standards;
• Only early-graduating seniors may participate in the October/November window; all other seniors may re-test during either or both of the two later windows.
Writing Assessment Opportunities
ONLY those grade 9 students, receiving instruction at the CIM level, and showing CIM level proficiency, should test at the CIM level.
Using the state test as a format for “practice testing” is out of compliance with state policy.
“Practice Testing”
Accommodations Overview
Accommodation—a change in how a test is presented to or responded to by a student.
– Provides the student equal access and equal opportunity to demonstrate proficiency.
– Considered “standard administration” and have the opportunity to “meet” or “exceed” the standard.
Modification Overview
A Modification is a substantial change in the standard administration of the test.– Allows the student to engage productively in the assessment which
includes changes in the instructional level, content, and performance criteria.
– Under modified conditions scores are not considered for determining whether the student “meets” or “exceeds” the CIM benchmark.
Scores obtained under modified conditions:• Are included in AYP (“does not meet”)• Do NOT count toward meeting performance standards for
individual students• Are included in participation counts for AYP and Report Card
Other Assessments• Targeted Assessments
– Either TESA or Paper Pencil• Side-by-Side
– Spanish (Mathematics, Science, Social Sciences)– Russian (download only)
• Mathematics grades 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, & CIM• Science benchmarks 2, 3, & CIM
• Career and Life Role Assessment System (CLRAS) • Extended Reading, Mathematics, Writing, and Science• Juried Assessments• Appeals• English Language Proficiency Assessment
A Targeted Assessment (formerly challenge) is from a different level than the grade of enrollment – and is consistent with the level of instruction.
A student may target a lower grade level ONLY if doing so is described in the students’ IEP.
If approved by the USDOE for 2005 – 2006, 2% of all assessments used to determine a district’s AYP may include these tests.
Targeted Assessments
The side-by-side assessments have the same items presented in both Spanish and English or in both Russian and English.
Students benefiting from seeing the items in both languages can meet standards for both the CIM and for AYP. These are “standard administration” tests.
Side – by - Side
Extended Assessments/CLRAS
What are they?– Alternatives to grade level assessments
Who takes them?– Students with significant disabilities that are unable to take
the general statewide assessment
Who gives them?– Only “qualified” assessors should administer extended
assessments
For more information about Extended Assessments & CLRAS go to:
http://www.ode.state.or.us/search/results/?id=178
Juried Assessments
What is it?– Juried Assessments are an alternative path for students who
can meet the CIM standards, but are unable to demonstrate mastery on one or more statewide assessments.
Who uses the Juried Assessment process?– Any student who has mastered grade level content, but is
unable to demonstrate the mastery on statewide assessments.– Students who have entered Oregon schools at grades 11 or 12,
and choose not to take the statewide assessments.– “Eligible” students demonstrating reading and/or writing
skills at the standard level, but in their native language.
Juried AssessmentsWhat is a Collection of Evidence?
– A set of materials gathered to show that the student is performing at the standard level on the grade level content.
– The collection must address the State Board-adopted content and performance standards
How does the Juried Assessment Process begin?– Districts are required to notify parents of the opportunity for
students to use the Juried Assessment Process
Do JA’s “count” for AYP and/or CIM?– In general, yes!
For detailed requirements and intent to submit deadlines go to: http://www.ode.state.or.us/search/results/?id=175
Writing Test Appeals
• State scores must be in the appropriate range of composite scores.– CIM: 25 – 39– 7th: 25 – 39– 4th: 20 – 31
• Trained rater re-scores paper. If score appears higher, re-submit paper.
• Attach original paper to ‘Appeals Form’.– Completely fill out form.– Local rater and district test coordinator must sign form.
• ODE must receive by May 31, 2006.• Appealed scores always replace original score.
Test SecuritySecurity procedures are designed to protect the integrity and confidentiality of those test questions, prompts, and problems that are not released for public use; the security of these materials is necessary so that they can be used in later years to measure trends in performance.
Test administration procedures are to ensure consistent statewide test administration. When this doesn’t happen:– Report to ODE Office of Assessment and Information Services– Determine an action plan– Conduct an investigation– Report the results of the investigation– If appropriate – contact TSPC re: possible loss of licensure
A PowerPoint presentation about test security is available on the ODE website.
Go to: http://www.ode.state.or.us/teachlearn/testing/admin/testsecurity.ppt
• To maintain secure and fair test administration:– Teachers and proctors must sign the Assurance of Test Security
form to communicate the importance of “standardized” administration of tests each year. These are to be kept at the district office for one year.
– Concepts that had not been taught earlier may not be introduced to students prior to giving the test (don’t give test materials out too soon)
– Proctors may not suggest which prompt a student ought to select for writing
– Unused test materials, after each testing window, must be returned to the District Test Coordinator. Schools may not keep extra booklets or copy test forms for practice or future instructional use
– Test forms have a “core” set of items that are the same year to year. This set links the current test to previous years’ tests and ensures the test is consistent and fair from year to year
– Any teacher responsible for proctoring test administration for students “must be in the room monitoring this process and be available for students who may have operational questions.”

Student Staging (formerly PADM)
Student Staging Overview:– The intent of the Student Staging web site is to make Assessment data
more complete and accurate before state-generated reports are issued.– The Student Staging web site is preloaded with the demographic portion
of student records.– Each Assessment Window is a different Student Staging database file.– One student record is displayed on the screen at a time. – Each student will have multiple records if s/he has taken more than one
test.For instructions on accessing and using the Student Staging site go to:
https://district.ode.state.or.us/docs/asmt/tststg/StudentStagingUserGuide.pdf
NOTE: TESA data updates student staging daily!
• For writing, speaking, and mathematics problem solving, students in grades 3, 4, 5, 6, 7 & 8 must complete one work sample scored with the state scoring guide.
• Students at the CIM level must complete 2 work samples from different strands (SRCs 3, 4, or 5) in mathematics problem solving; and 3 samples in writing (one persuasive, one expository AND one imaginative or narrative). In speaking, CIM students must complete 3 samples (one persuasive, one informative, and one unrehearsed).
Work Sample Requirements
• For scientific inquiry, students in grades 4 – 8 and at the CIM level must complete one work sample, scored in the required dimensions.
• For social sciences analysis, students in grades 6 – 8 and at the CIM level may complete one work sample, scored in the required dimensions, beginning in 2005 – 06.
