How the MCAS reports it

MCAS is Massachusetts’ statewide assessment program, and its math design is built on Massachusetts Curriculum Frameworks rather than a separate multi-state framework. The official MCAS pages state that MCAS assessments are based on the state’s learning standards and that the math tests are organized by Massachusetts grade-band domains/reporting categories.

Blueprint & weighting
