The Partnership for Assessment of Readiness for College and Careers (PARCC)
The Partnership for Assessment of Readiness for College and Careers (PARCC) is an organization who creates the new assessments that measure students' understanding of the Common Core Curriculum. The PARCC tests have replaced the Math and Reading Maryland State Assessments (MSA). Students in Mr. Dulberger's 2014-2015 5th grade class will take the PARCC assessment during March and April. The resources outlined below are designed to help parents, students, and teachers feel more prepared and knowledgable about PARCC.
