Score Reports
Teachers now have the capability to bundle student reports in Kite. School and District-level reports became available May 15, 2025. These are available in the same area where individual student testlet reports are housed (INTERIM > View Results > Testlet Report tab dropdown).
The Summative Report will be available after Standard Setting occurs in the Summer 2025.
Individual student score reports were provided during each of the first three testing windows and offer valuable insights into students' academic strengths and areas for improvement. The linked focused support video will provide more information on accessing, interpreting, and utilizing the MAST Student Score Report. Additional resources can be found in the Score Report section of the MAST Portal.
Kite Parent Portal
The Kite Parent Portal is a valuable resource that helps parents and guardians support their child’s learning throughout the school year. After the student-parent connection is established in the Kite Educator Portal at the district level, parents and guardians can access their child’s score reports, which are released weekly during testing windows. For more information, refer to the Parent Portal One-Pager.
