Students in Irvine Unified School District participate in statewide assessments each year to provide information about their skills in English language arts/literacy, mathematics, science, and physical fitness. Students identified as English Learners also participate in an annual assessment of English language proficiency. In IUSD, we see these assessments as an academic checkup. Like class assignments and report cards, these assessments provide one piece of information about student progress toward college and career readiness. State assessment results should always be interpreted as one of multiple measures of a student's skills.
