PSSA MATH

Note: A newly developed Math assessment was given first in the Spring 2015 to test PA Core standards. Spring 2016 is the second
year the new assessment has been given. We do not yet have trend data for this test. Because the current (2015-2016) Math
assessment is a different test than the earlier (2010-2014) Math assessment, comparisons between results may not be made.
