Students in grades third through fifth will be taking the state assessment this spring. The South Carolina College- and Career-Ready Assessment (SC READY) program is a statewide assessment in English language arts (ELA) and mathematics in grades 3–8 and science for grade 4. The SC READY tests measure the South Carolina College- and Career-Ready Standards taught in ELA, Math, and Science classes. All students, including students with disabilities and multilingual learners (M Ls), must be administered SC READY except for those students who qualify for the South Carolina Alternate Assessment (S C-Alt) as determined by their I E P team. Testing dates are below. Feel free to browse the parent brochure for more information: English, Spanish.
