Each year, Perry-Lecompton students are required to complete the state assessment in subject areas determined by the State of Kansas. Depending on grade level, students may be tested in English Language Arts, Mathematics, or Science. Each tested area has two sessions which last approximately 45 minutes each. This year, the Department of Education has added a Task Assessment for History, Government, and Social Studies. A task assessment is project-based and completed within the classroom during a time determined by the teacher. Scores from this are submitted to the Department of Education in late May, early June. Since the HGSS Task Assessment is completed in class over a span of days, if not weeks, students do not need to plan appointments around this assessment. Scheduled assessments by subject area for the 2022-2023 school year are listed below by grade level.

Assessment schedules have been set by individual buildings and must fall within the state-established assessment window, which runs from March 20 through April 28. Due to the difficulty in scheduling make-up assessments, please make every attempt to have your child in school on designated appropriate grade-level state assessment dates. Due to unforeseen circumstances, the assessment schedule may change so we hope parents will bookmark the following link for future reference. Click HERE to access the calendar/dates for ALL district-wide state assessments.
In an effort to ensure that each student can perform to the best of his or her ability on testing days, our teachers continually work hard to create lessons that meet established state standards in assigned subject areas. Families can help in this important aspect of our district's success by watching for notes from the schools about testing dates and trying hard to have students at school on the scheduled days. Additionally, making an extra effort to ensure your child gets plenty of rest the night before and a nutritious breakfast the morning of all assessment dates will be beneficial. Together, families and school district personnel can partner to plan for a successful state assessment experience.
Questions regarding your child’s assessments can be directed to their teacher or building test coordinator. Building test coordinators are: PLHS: Mark Scherschligt PLMS: Casey Webb and PLES – Tracey Paramore or Mark Lamb Additionally, you may contact the USD 343 district test coordinator, Josh Woodward
