About the Assessments Table

The assessments table in the Performance on Tests report displays a row for each assessment.

This table allows you to access the corresponding Assessment Reports for each assessment listed. The report that you access by selecting the name of a test depends on your user role:

• Teachers access the My Students’ Performance on Test report.
• School-level users access the School Performance on Test report.
• District-level users access the District Performance on Test report.

From any Assessment Report, you can return to the Performance on Tests report by selecting Performance on Tests in the upper-left corner of the page.

Table 1 describes the columns in the Assessments table.

By comparing your students with larger groups, you can make sure they are performing on par with their peers and take action if they’re not.
