state assessment systems

State assessment systems are standardized tests used by governments to evaluate the academic progress of students and the effectiveness of schools. These assessments measure skills in core subjects like reading, math, and science to ensure students meet specific learning standards. Results help educators identify strengths and areas needing improvement, guide curriculum adjustments, and inform policy decisions. They also provide accountability for schools, ensuring all students receive quality education and helping to promote student achievement and equity across different regions and districts.
