State Assessments

State Assessments

In Louisiana's K-12 public school system, state assessments refer to standardized tests administered to students annually. These assessments, such as the LEAP (Louisiana Educational Assessment Program) tests, measure students' proficiency in key subjects like English Language Arts, mathematics, science, and social studies. The results help evaluate students' academic progress, identify areas needing improvement, and inform instructional strategies. State assessments also play a role in school accountability ratings and inform decisions on curriculum development and resource allocation. They are a crucial component of Louisiana's educational framework, aiming to ensure students receive a quality education and meet established learning standards.
