All MISD Kindergarten and Grade 2 students are universally tested during the school day in their respective classes. Testing occurs during a 2-week window in the middle of January. Each school determines its own testing schedule for these assessments.
Students in grades 1, 3-9 can be nominated by their families for testing. These students will test on the January dates of the testing calendar provided on the next tab .
All tests are timed except for those administered in Kindergarten and Grade 1.
* The Mercer Island School District does not allow students to retest within 12 months. Additionally, students may only test for two consecutive years before a mandatory year off from testing.
Please note that based on students’ graduation classes, different grades complete different assessments. Below is a chart showing which tests are administered at each grade level.
