* Testing mode refers to how the student will be administered the assessment. The two types of mode are computer and paper and pencil; some computer-based assessments allow students to take the assessment using paper and pencil. Be sure to inquire about the options if your son/daughter has a medical issue that would not allow him/her to take the assessment on the computer. ** ‘Testing time’ is the maximum amount of time allotted to students to complete the assessment. Most students finish well in advance of the allotted time. *** The testing window is the period in which districts administer the PARCC assessment; it is not the actual number of days it takes a student to test. The testing window for DTS is still to be determined. **** This column indicates when the reports will be available to DTS; we will send out reports to parents as soon as possible.
Sincerely, Kathleen Racile, Supervisor Patricia Pillon, Supervisor
