*Makeups through May 8
The Iowa Statewide Assessment of Student Progress (ISASP) is Iowa’s statewide summative assessment and meets federal accountability requirements under the Every Student Succeeds Act (ESSA). Aligned to the Iowa Core Standards, ISASP measures student proficiency, growth, and readiness in English/language arts, reading, math, and science. 
Math & English Language Arts: Grades 3-11
​
​Science: Grades 5, 8, 10
Throughout the year, DMPS students build the knowledge and skills outlined in the Iowa Core Standards, which prepares them for assessments like ISASP. Families can support preparation by using the practice tests available through Pearson Access Next. These sample tests help students become familiar with both the test content and the online testing platform.
