The public release of ACT, ACT ASPIRE, and Wy-ALT results is scheduled for August 15 at 1:00 pm. All results are embargoed until the aggregated statewide results are released publicly; summary results cannot be shared with local media until August 15.
 Notification letters to elementary and middle school principals specifying the 2017 National Assessment of Educational Progress (NAEP) testing day at their building(s) were sent via regular mail on July 25th and principals will be receiving electronic copies via email shortly.
Principals are asked to please immediately mark their school’s 2017 NAEP date on their school’s calendar, and if needed contact Will Donkersgoed as soon as possible at william.donkersgoed@wyo.gov or (307) 777-5133 re: any scheduling conflicts or date change requests.
As a reminder, the 2017 NAEP window opens Monday January 30, 2017 and runs through Friday March 10, 2017. Earlier in June, State Superintendent Balow notified district superintendents and assessment directors about the 2017 NAEP program and schools in their district selected for the assessment.
As a heads-up, additional information for registering schools online will be sent to principals in early August….and please stay tuned to the WDE Assessment Newsletter for additional details re: 2017 NAEP in Wyoming. Thank you!
