Introduction

CERS reports summative assessment results of the CAASPP and the ELPAC programs, including:

• Smarter Balanced ELA and Math assessments
• California Alternate Assessments (CAA) for ELA, Math, and Science
• California Science Test (CAST)
• California Spanish Assessment (CSA)
• Summative English Language Proficiency Assessments for California (ELPAC)
• Summative Alternate English Language Proficiency Assessments for California (Summative Alternate ELPAC)

In CERS, the main difference between interim assessments and summative assessments is that only interim assessments display item-level data.
