Biology I and U.S. History Cut Scores

Dear Superintendent and District Test Coordinator,
Standard settings for the Oklahoma Core Curriculum Tests (OCCT) and the Oklahoma Modified Alternate Assessment Program (OMAAP) Biology I tests were conducted this summer. The State Board of Education has approved the recommended cut scores and performance level descriptors. Likewise, the OCCT and the OMAAP U.S. History tests underwent psychometric standards reviews to establish appropriate cut scores. CTB is currently applying these performance level cuts to students’ raw scores from the Winter/Trimester and Spring administrations and will be posting them online in a file format. CTB will notify districts when these reports are available, and you will be able to access them using your single sign-on through their web portal. In the meantime, we realize districts have been waiting for these scores for graduation or remediation/retesting purposes and hope that the release of the scale score cuts and associated raw scores will be beneficial to schools until the individual student results post.
Also, due to the delay in these scores reporting, the decision has been made to extend the Summer testing window for an another week through Friday, August 9, 2013, so that schools may have additional time to retest students. If you have any questions, please contact the Office of Accountability and Assessments at (405) 521-3341.
