In keeping with this goal, the Department regularly releases MCAS test items to provide information regarding the kinds of knowledge and skills that students are expected to demonstrate. In November 2007, MCAS retests in Mathematics and English Language Arts were administered in high schools across the state. In keeping with our past practice of releasing all test items on which student results are based, I am pleased to announce that all questions from these tests are included in Release of November 2007 MCAS Retest Items.  \nThis publication is available only through the Department of Education Web site [at www.doe.mass.edu/mcas/](at www.doe.mass.edu/mcas/)[ ](at www.doe.mass.edu/mcas/)[testitems.html.
