Overview on Next Generation MCAS

Earlier in the month, the School Committee was presented with an overview of last spring's MCAS results.  Laura Tilton, the district's Director District Data & Accountability, gave a fantastic summary of the results and how the test itself has changed from previous years. 

Below is a link to Ms. Tilton's powerpoint that highlights the success of our students, while comparing and contrasting the legacy MCAS tests and the Next-generation version.  In addition, an article from the Marshfield Mariner outlines much of what was discussed.
