California Alternate Assessments Reminder
Students must complete both the California Alternate Assessment (CAA) for English language arts and the CAA for mathematics. If a student does not orient during or respond to the first four questions of the first subject area they engage, the test examiner (TE) may end the test as instructed in the Directions for Administration (DFAs). The TE still must administer the subsequent subject-area assessment, and if the student does not orient or respond to the first four questions of the following assessment, the TE may end the test as instructed by the DFAs.
