How the Forward reports it

Wisconsin’s Forward Exam is a state assessment designed to measure students against the recently updated Wisconsin Academic Standards, rather than a separate national framework. The official Forward Exam page confirms the math assessment is administered in grades 3-8 and is aligned to the Wisconsin Academic Standards, but it does not publish a math-specific blueprint on the page itself.

Blueprint & weighting

Not published in the official Forward Exam page content available here. The page confirms alignment to Wisconsin Academic Standards and administration in grades 3-8, but no math blueprint percentages or reporting-category weights are provided on the page content retrieved.
