Assessment & Accountability


The Sunnyvale School District utilizes a range of assessment strategies to gain a full, detailed view of student progress toward Board of Education established standards of expected achievement.  Testing is a valuable educational tool for student assessment and program evaluation. It is important, however, to remember that test data is only one snapshot in the total performance picture for a student, grade level, school, or district.

 

Sunnyvale School District participates in the following assessments:

 

Standardized Testing and Reporting - STAR
California Alternate Performance Assessment - CAPA
California English Language Development Test - CELDT
Physical Fitness - FITNESS TESTING
Academic Performance Index - API
National Assessment of Educational Progress - NAEP
