Grades 3-8: MAAP English Language Arts & Mathematics
Grades 5 & 8: MAAP Science
Grade 11: ACT Junior Administration

Other assessments are also administered to selected students in certain programs or classes such as the English Language Proficiency Test (Las Links); MAAP-A (Alternate Assessment); and ACT WorkKeys.
