State Assessments

October 2024

 

During the 2024-25 school year one set of state-mandated academic tests are required for all students.

 

English Language Learners are required to take the ACCESS assessment between February 3, 2025 and March 28, 2025.

 

Students taking the DLM assessment will complete it between April 7, 2025 and May 23, 2025.

 

Between April 288 and May 23, 2025, all students will take the NJSLA in ELA, Math, while 5th and 8th graders will also take the NJSLA science test. Students who are absent during the test-taking sessions will make-up their test units between May 27 and May 30, 2025. These are online assessments with a paper option for students whose IEP requires it. ELA and Math assessments each take 180 minutes, while the science assessment requires 135 minutes. More information is available here (Office of Assessments page) and here (Assessment Calendar).
