ISTEP+

Indiana Statewide Testing for 
Educational Progress - Plus (ISTEP+)

Percent Of 2005-06, 2006-07, 2007-08 And 2008-09 Caston Students, By Grade Level, Passing Indicated ISTEP+ Test (8/22/06; 9/7/06; 12/21/06; 12/13/07; 12/12/08) - Standardized test scores, such as ISTEP, are but one indication of the learning that is taking place. However, increasing attention is being given to them by Indiana and the federal government. The parent of a child who takes an ISTEP test is aware of his/her individual results. However, what about the performance of the entire grade or school? Indiana's Department of Education has vast amounts of information and test results available online regarding the schools in the state. The table below gives just a small amount of the Caston results available online. By clicking on the school name below you can find information that will take you to comparative test results for previous years. Also, you will find a variety of other information pertaining to Caston students.
