Overall, Colorado districts succeeded in administering the state's first online state wide assessments. Challenges were encountered along the way; however, districts and schools were committed to working through them in a manner that allowed students to complete testing. Lessons learned during the science and social studies administration and the PARCC administration will be invaluable to improving next year's assessment administration. Many of the issues and concerns expressed by districts affirmed the list of improvements that had already been identified and prioritized by CDE. CDE will continue to work with districts, schools, Pearson and PARCC to support districts in continuously improving future online administrations.
