2016 Massachusetts State Report Card
Part II - State Achievement in English Language Arts, Mathematics & Science and Technology/Engineering


2016 MCAS Results by Student Group by Grade and Subject

NOTE: First-year ELL students are not included in achievement level or CPI results. However, first-year ELL students who took the ACCESS for ELLs test are counted as ELA participants; in addition, first-year ELL students who are present for Mathematics/Science and Technology/Engineering are counted as Mathematics/Science and Technology/Engineering participants. Please see the principal's administration manual (PAM) for details.

NOTE: Spring 2016 state-level achievement and growth results in grades 3-8 ELA and Mathematics are not reported because most students in Massachusetts participated in the PARCC test.
