Testing Letter
Your student will soon be participating in the Oklahoma School Testing Program (OSTP). This program includes a variety of assessments designed to measure a student’s knowledge of the Oklahoma Academic Standards. All grades will complete Reading and Math assessments. Eighth grade will complete additional assessments in Writing and Science.
This year, all tests will be administered online through the Measured Progress system.
In the last few weeks, your student’s teachers have been preparing them for the test by reviewing the standards taught throughout the year, working through sample problems, and familiarizing them with the online testing platform.
On each testing day, our students will travel to Santa Fe in the morning or afternoon, one team at a time, to complete their assessments in the testing pods. It is vital that all students are at Summit on time. Additionally, since students will be off-site, they will not available for check-out. All electronic devices, including all cell phones and smartwatches, must remain at school or all student tests could be invalidated. Students will only need to bring a book to read after they have completed their assessment.
Below, you will find our testing schedule. If a student has an unavoidable absence or school activity, a make-up test day will be scheduled, based on availability, before April 27th.
