Assessment

Assessment's goal is to provide reliable and valid assessments which will enable teachers to obtain information to inform instructional improvement and student learning. Assessment supervises the creation, distribution, training, scanning, scoring and data reporting of valid and reliable assessments aligned to the Dallas ISD curriculum or the state's curriculum standards called the Texas Essential Knowledge and Skills (TEKS). Our main assessments include:

  • Assessment of Course Performance

    Assessments of Course Performance (ACPs) are created in collaboration with Teaching and Learning, and are used each semester in grades K through 12 as part of the students' summative evaluation. ACPs are created for courses in mathematics, reading/language arts, science, social studies, English as a second language (ESL), world languages, technology, health and fine arts. Data from the tests are summarized and presented on MyData Portal, for district and campus administrators and individual teachers who use the information to make instructional decisions. ACPs, per Board Policy, are a part of the course and represent 15% of a semester grade in High School and 10% of a semester grade in Middle School. For Elementary School, the ACP represents 5% of the semester grade for Grades 3-5.
  • Common Assessments

    Common Assessments are nine-weeks tests given at the end of the 1st and 3rd nine-weeks period. These assessments are given online through the Dallas Assessment Navigator platform. The tests are created in collaboration with Teaching and Learning.
