Iowa Statewide Assessment of Student Progress (ISASP)
The Iowa Statewide Assessment of Student Progress (ISASP) is the summative accountability assessment for all Iowa students that meets the requirements of the federal Every Student Succeeds Act (ESSA). The assessments are aligned with the Iowa Core Standards and provide a clear and accurate assessment of student learning outcomes. Student growth, proficiency, and readiness indicators are reported in English/language arts, reading, math, and science. Science is only taken by students in grades 5, 8, and 10.
Throughout the year, students at DMPS engage in lessons that help them develop the skills, knowledge, and abilities outlined in the Iowa Core Standards. This work prepares them to take assessments such as the ISASP. Another way you can help your student prepare is by having them attempt practice problems provided by Pearson Access Next. Click the Test Preparation link to view the sample tests in each of the subject areas. These practice tests not only help with the content of the assessments, but also the operation of the online testing platform.
