Dear Catholic School Families,
As you know, students in grades
three through eight participate in New York State assessments in the areas of
English Language Arts (ELA) and mathematics every year. These exams are
developed in accordance with state learning standards and offer the opportunity
for children to assess the skills and content they have acquired.
This spring, to begin the process of incrementally
preparing schools for a statewide transition to computer-based testing in
public and nonpublic schools, the
Archdiocese of New York will administer the grade five ELA exam on the
computer. While this only immediately pertains to fifth grade students/families,
we are sharing this exciting news with all grade levels to outline the plan for
such practices in future years.
Implementing computer-based
testing (CBT) in fifth grade this year moves our students and staff toward a
full transition in all grades expected to be mandated by the State Education
Department (SED) in the next few years.
We will build off this experience by adding an additional class in math next
year, thus familiarizing our schools with the process to prepare for
participation in all grades. The exam will feature the exact same content as
the paper version and provide benefits such as the ability to strike out
answers students know are incorrect, allowing them to focus on the remaining choices.
Students are being prepared for
the shift to CBT in the following ways:
·
Schools will conduct
practice exams in late February
to measure student
and school preparedness;
·
SED has released sample questions (https://ny.nextera.questarai.com/tds/#practice)
to illustrate what the exam will
look and feel like; and
·
Teachers are providing
regular opportunities for students to work with digital tools and practice
typing to enhance their ability
to navigate the online
testing environment.
Thank you for your continued
partnership in your child’s education. I look forward to our mutual preparation
for this transition to ensure student success.
Sincerely,
Timothy J. McNiff
Superintendent of Schools
Archdiocese of New York
