Value-Added Assessment in Utah Utah 's U-Pass Accountability Plan, which was signed into law in May 2005, requires reporting each student's status as well as his/her progress (comparing the previous year's performance with that of the current year's). Students are tested on both Criterion Reference Tests and the Utah Basic Skills Assessments. Attendance and graduation rates are also considered. Students with disabilities and English language learners have alternative plans. The progress of schools is also measured by both looking at the percentage of students proficient on assessments as well as comparing the same student, or groups of students, from one year to the next.iLinks to important websites State of Utah Office of Education, http://www.schools.utah.gov/ ihttp://www.schools.utah.gov/eval/DOCUMENTS/UPASS_Presentation_5-25-05.ppt , Utah Performance Assessment System for Students Accountability Plan, May 13, 2005 back to map |
