ISTEP moved to spring Governor Mitch Daniels announced Friday that the ISTEP test will move back to the spring. "The test will be in the spring, the results will be in hand months sooner, the cost to taxpayers will go down, and school will no longer start sooner than it should," Daniels explained. Spring testing will begin in the 2008-09 academic year. Students will take the current ISTEP for the last time in September 2008 to be tested on what they learned in the 2007-08 school year, then take the new test in spring 2009 on what they've learned during the current year. Thereafter, the test will be adminstered only in the spring. The timeline for spring testing and more information about the new ISTEP may be found at www.in.gov/gov/files/ISTEP _info.pdf. |
