1. How does the CSAP help schools and students? The CSAP is a tool for teachers and parents to use to address the educational needs of the student. CSAPs are sent home to parents with a detailed diagnostic report that explains their child's academic strengths and areas that need improvement. This allows parents to work with teachers to better understand the unique needs of the child. 2. Will the CSAP affect my child's grade, ability to graduate or move to the next grade? No. Your child will take the CSAP test each year in grades 3 through 10 in reading and writing and grades 5 through 10 in math. In grade 11 your child will take the ACT which may be used to apply for college and will be recorded on his or her transcript. No child is denied advancement to the next grade or graduation from high school based on his or her results. CSAP scores are not used on a school's accountability report These assessments, which were written by Colorado teachers, provide you and your child's teacher a diagnostic tool of what your child knows and is able to do based on the academic standards for his or her grade level. It will provide the teacher with your child's strengths and weaknesses. The assessment will enable the teacher to provide targeted instruction and help for your child. 3. Are schools spending too much time preparing for the CSAP - are they "teaching to the test"?
