2013 New Jersey Alternate Proficiency Assessment (NJAPA)

The Alternate Proficiency Assessment (APA) is a portfolio assessment designed to measure progress toward achieving New Jersey’s state educational standards for students with the most significant cognitive disabilities who are unable to participate in the general assessments. The APA is not designed as a measure for graduation.

Highlights from the 2013 APA Performance

- 71 students were evaluated for the 2013 APA; a decrease of five students compared to 2012.

- Grade seven has the largest number of APA participants (13 students). - 58 (about 81.7%) males participated in the APA compared to 13 (about 18.3%) females.

- 12 students in grades 10 and 11 were evaluated in Science. Language Arts Literacy (LAL) - An increase in percent proficient for total students in all grade levels, except grades 4 and 6, compared to percent proficient in 2012.

Mathematics

- An increase in percent proficient for total students in grades 3 and 6 when compared to percent proficient in 2012. Percent proficient decreased for grades 4, 5, and 7.

Science - An increase in percent proficient for total students in grades 4 and 11 compared to 2012.
