ACAP Parent -Family Guide to the ACAP Alternate Assessment

ACAP Alternate Assessment (formerly known as the Alabama Alternate Assessment, or "AAA") administered in the Spring

Students in grades 2 - 8, 10 and 11 who have significant cognitive disabilities will participate in the AAA. They are tested in the same curriculum areas as their general education counterparts. The assessment is based upon the Alabama Alternative Standards which allow students to demonstrate mastery through task performance.

PreACT grade 10 administered in the Fall
This assessment is administered to 10th grade students in the fall. It mirrors the ACT they will take in the 11th grade. The purpose is to establish a baseline for growth to be measured after the ACT with Writing administration the following year. These results are not used for accountability.

The ACT with Writing grade 11 administered in the Spring

All students in the 11th grade are required to participate in the administration of this assessment. The ACT with Writing is an entrance exam which is accepted by colleges and universities throughout the country. It is also used as an accountability measure for Alabama high schools. Additionally, students who meet or exceed the benchmark score for any subtest on the ACT are considered to be college ready by ALSDE and contribute positively to our system's college and career readiness indicator component of the accountability model.

 

ACT Workkeys grade 12 administered in the Fall.

ACT WorkKeys® tests are research-based measures of foundational work skills essential to career success across industries and occupations. The assessments help to close skill gaps and improve workforce quality. This assessment is administered to students in grade 12. Students who earn a silver standard or higher on all three component tests are considered to be career ready by ALSDE and positively affect the college and career readiness indicator for accountability.

 

ACCESS for ELLs 2.0 administered to all EL students in the Spring

English Learners (EL) students are administered this assessment annually to measure their progress with acquisition of the English language. They are assessed in four domains: Speaking, Listening, Reading, and Writing.
