Boost Engagement and Understanding of State Test Scores with Video Student Score Reports!

Email Update, December 4, 2024

ETS offers California LEAs video Student Score Reports (SSRs) for purchase for the 2024–25 test administration of CAASPP Smarter Balanced and the Summative ELPAC. Watch the video SSR in action!

Why Purchase the Videos?

CAASPP Smarter Balanced: The CAASPP Smarter Balanced videos offer information on overall scores, targeted claims, writing extended responses, historical scores, comparisons to state and school averages, Lexile and Quantile scores, and customized resources for families.

Summative ELPAC: The Summative ELPAC videos offer explanations on the domains and performance areas as well as offering customized resources that LEAs can use to guide families to resources that assist students and parents/guardians in understanding the student's Summative ELPAC score results.

What Was the Feedback from the CAASPP and ELPAC 2023–24 Video SSRs?

LEA coordinators stated the following:

  • "Engaging and informative!"
  • "Our families loved the videos!"
  • "Student friendly, easy to navigate."
  • "Well done, engaging and easy for parents to follow."
  • "LOVE THE ANIMATION!"
  • "The videos are engaging and helpful."
  • "They are great!"
  • "Comprehensive and well done!"
  • "Clear to understand for a parent."

What Is Changing for the 2024–25 Video SSRs?

CAASPP video SSRs will

  • use the new Smarter Balanced achievement level descriptors (if approved by the State Board of Education) to provide clearer insights for parents/guardians, and
  • include two years of historical data to help track progress (where available).

Both CAASPP and ELPAC video SSRs will

  • be available within a few days after SSRs are produced;
  • have their links provided to participating student information system vendors and appear in student and parent portals next to the PDF version of the SSR; and
  • have resource boxes at the end that can be created in the student's primary language, for supported languages, and customized by each LEA.
