Malloy sought and won approval this year for a waiver from the U.S. Department of Education to use the SAT as the high school accountability measure for Connecticut in lieu of the 11th grade Smarter Balanced assessment. The switch to the SAT also satisfies the requirements of Connecticut Public Act No. 15-238, which states that effective in the 2015-16 school year students enrolled in Grade 11 should be administered a nationally recognized college readiness assessment that is approved by the State Board of Education and that measures essential and grade-appropriate skills in reading, writing and mathematics.  \nWhile the Connecticut SAT is the primary Grade 11 assessment for all students, the Connecticut Alternate Assessment will be administered to a small percentage of students with significant cognitive disabilities.  \nWhen will the Connecticut SAT be administered to Grade 11 students?  \nThe three hour Connecticut SAT will be administered during the school day to all Grade 11 public school students on March 2, 2016. Make-ups will be administered on April 27, 2016. There will be no cost to districts for administration of the Connecticut SAT on these two dates. Both, the CSDE and each LEA are legally responsible to administer these assessments to all students.  \nWhat does the Connecticut SAT measure?  \nThe Connecticut SAT has two sections: Evidence-Based Reading and Writing and Mathematics. The Evidence-Based Reading and Writing section includes a Reading Test and a Writing and Language Test.  \nWhat are the changes in the redesigned SAT that debuts in March 2016?  \nThe Connecticut SAT focuses on the skills and knowledge that evidence shows are needed most for college and career success. It reflects what students are already learning in their classrooms in mathematics and English language arts with literacy focused on topics from science, history, and social studies. The vocabulary portion of the Connecticut SAT will focus on words that students use consistently in college and beyond. Additional information is available at [https://collegereadiness.collegeboard.org/](https://collegereadiness.collegeboard.org/) .  \nAre there specific instructions for setting up the school for administration of the Connecticut SAT?  \nDistrict Test Coordinators have been notified by the CSDE about the process to setup all schools/programs for testing in March. Each school will need an attending institution (AI) code, a test center number, as well as a person identified as the Test Center Supervisor, who will be  \nConnecticut Administration of the SAT Frequently Asked Questions for Districts & Schools  \nresponsible for managing all activities related to test day in each building/program. Students who have previously taken the PSAT/NMSQT, SAT, or AP exam will not have to register for the Connecticut SAT. Other students will register on paper in school before test day. Schools will receive directions on this process. Questions about the Connecticut SAT should be directed to Abe Krisst at abe.krisst@ct.gov or Michelle [Rosado at](Rosado at michelle. rosado@ct.gov)[ ](Rosado at michelle. rosado@ct.gov)[michelle. rosado@ct.gov](Rosado at michelle. rosado@ct.gov) .  \nWhat do Connecticut parents or districts do if they’ve already ordered SAT for spring 2016?  \nSince the CSDE will be providing the SAT for all public school students in Grade 11, districts will not need to purchase the SAT. Districts should look for more information in the coming weeks.  \nIf parents or students have already registered for a Spring 2016 administration, they may contact the College Board Customer Service department at (866) 756-7346 for assistance if they choose to change their test date or request a refund.  \nWhat resources are provided to Connecticut educators to prepare for the Co","cbCaijdBWPikNxSG","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaijdBWPikNxSG","pdf",402819,"English","# Why Connecticut chose the SAT\n## Grade 11 assessment transition and legal requirements\n# Administration schedule and responsibilities\n## Test dates and make-ups\n## Who is responsible for administering\n# What the Connecticut SAT measures\n## Sections and subtests\n# Changes in the redesigned SAT debuting in March 2016\n## Skills focus and content sources\n# School setup instructions\n## Test center codes and supervisor roles\n## Student registration rules\n# SAT ordering and changing Spring 2016 registration\n## District purchasing guidance\n## Parent/student contact for changes or refunds\n# Resources for educators\n## Professional development and modules\n# Calculator policy\n## When calculators are allowed\n# Accommodations for students with disabilities and EL students","[{\"question\":\"Why did Connecticut choose the SAT instead of Smarter Balanced for Grade 11?\",\"answer\":\"Connecticut sought a U.S. Department of Education waiver to use the SAT as the high school accountability measure.
