CMAS includes testing for English Language Arts, Math, Science, and Social Studies in grades 3-8. Students participate in PSAT preparatory exams in grades 9-10 and the SAT college entrance exam and CMAS Science in grade 11. Students who qualify for alternate assessments are those with significant cognitive disabilities for whom general state assessments are not appropriate. Dynamic Learning Maps (DLM) is the alternate assessment for English Language Arts and Math for students in grades 3-11. The Colorado Alternate assessment (CoAlt) is the alternate assessment for Science and Social Studies.  \nIn December of 2009, Colorado adopted revised academic content standards progressing from early school readiness to postsecondary competencies reflective of both workforce readiness and 21st century skills. Student progress toward these outcomes is measured through results from CMAS, PSAT, and SAT, which provide information to teachers as they incorporate the content standards in their daily instruction. These results are also used for school and district accountability.  \nBy opting out, I recognize that I will not receive results of my child’s achievement and growth as measured by these assessments. I also understand that educators use these results for instructional planning, class placement, and academic screening, and that this information will not be available to my child’s educators.  \nTo opt-out of state testing, this form must be filled out by the parent/guardian  \nDate:   Grade:   Student ID Number:    \nStudent’s Legal First Name:    \nStudent’s Legal Last Name:    \nSchool Name:    \nPlease indicate which test(s) you are opting out of for the 2025-26 school year:  \nPlease mark the box next to the assessment you would like to opt your student out of.
