Greetings, Bears! We are sharing our 2025-2026 UCASD School Assessment Calendar. This calendar highlights each of the testing dates for our Winter and Spring Keystone Exams for high school students and our Spring PSSAs for elementary and middle school. The image includes details on which grade-levels and content areas are tested and which Keystone exams are taken when. We also have a host of resources and information for families posted on our Student Assessment page on our District Website. Please feel free to check it out and know that you are always welcome to reach out to your child's guidance counselor and School Assessment Coordinator, Mr. McMahan, Mr. Anthony, and/or Mrs. Conti, or our District Assessment Coordinator, Mrs. Dell, with any questions throughout the year. We will host informational sessions for parents/guardians later this year and will also be sure to send reminders out as we get closer to each testing window. We are having a great kick-off to 2025-2026 and are so proud of our students! #GoBears
