State Assessment Dates and Information 2021-2022

T.C.A. § 49-6-6007. Students and parents must be able to access information about state mandated tests and tests mandated by the LEA that shall be administered in the upcoming school year on the LEA website. 

Grades 3-8 TCAP Achievement Assessments

Annual assessments play a key role in the teaching and learning process, and they are critical to ensure that all students are meeting higher standards and are making progress on their path to postsecondary and the workforce. The TCAP assessments are designed to provide Tennessee students, teachers, and families with better information about what students know and understand.

Each test (by subject) is divided into multiple subparts and will be administered on paper in a single administration window at the end of the school year.

English language arts (4 subparts) will consist of multiple choice and selected response items, as well as reading from texts and providing a written response.

Mathematics (3 subparts) will consist of multiple choice, multiple select, equation editor, matching tables, and graphing representations.

Science (2 subparts) will measure current content standards and consist of multiple-choice items.

Social Studies (2 subparts) will consist of multiple choice, as well as reading from texts and providing a written response.

Applicable Federal/State Law

Administered in accordance with Every Student Succeeds Act (ESSA) of 2015 and T.C.A. 49-1-602 pertaining to district and school accountability.  Modified assessments in Braille and large print are also provided in accordance with Every Student Succeeds Act of 2015 and Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA) of 1990.

Purpose & Use

The TCAP tests are designed to assess true student understanding and not just basic memorization and test-taking skills. TCAP measures student understanding of our current state standards.

Results to Parents & Students

Quick score reports, which provide teachers and parents with a snapshot of their student's performance, are provided to districts by the end of the school year. These are used to help calculate final grades for report cards if applicable.

Districts receive individual performance reports which summarize student performance in more detail, and we will share those reports in the fall 2022.

Free & Reduced Meal Application 2021-2022

The USDA announced that free lunches would continue to be served to ALL students once again for the upcoming 2021-2022 school year. With that assistance already in place, our District is still seeking to obtain completed applications from families who would likely apply and qualify for free/reduced priced meals. It is important to receive these applications in order to attain the maximum amount of federal assistance for other programs (outside of free meals) that greatly benefit our students and families.
