ISAT Test Results Trickle In

The school year is all but over — and the contractor handling Idaho’s new standardized test needs an extension. This spring’s results from the new Idaho Standards Achievement Test by Smarter Balanced have been trickling in slowly, so parents won’t find out how their children did until later in the month, and well into summer break. That means school districts are frustrated, and scrambling. “We are working with (the State Department of Education) to explore options to provide parents with the scores and an understanding of what those scores mean,” said Dan Hollar, a spokesman for the Boise School District , where the 2014-15 school year ends Tuesday. The State Department of Education acknowledges the delays, caused by a pair of reporting glitches/ Kevin Richert , IDEDNews.org. More here.
