What students learn
Smarter Balanced ELA and math
Students take the Smarter Balanced tests in English language arts and math in grades 3 to 8 and grade 11. The tests are computer-adaptive, so questions adjust to the student's earlier answers, and each includes a performance task. Paper tests are available by special request.
CAST science and the new score labels
The California Science Test (CAST) is taken in grades 5 and 8 and once in high school, in grade 10, 11 or 12. It is computer-based and includes performance tasks. Since 2025–26, results use new labels: Level 4 Advanced, Level 3 Proficient, Level 2 Developing and Level 1 Minimal. They replace Standard Exceeded, Met, Nearly Met and Not Met; the scores and cut points did not change.

Questions about this course
Which CAASPP tests will my child take?
Smarter Balanced ELA and math in grades 3 to 8 and 11, and the CAST science test in grades 5 and 8 and once in high school.
What does a performance task involve?
It is a longer, multi-part task within the test. We practise planning the steps and showing the reasoning, so students are not rushed at the end.
Why do the score levels look different now?
Since 2025–26 the levels are called Advanced, Proficient, Developing and Minimal. Only the names changed; the scores and cut points stayed the same.
