The Montana Office of Public Instruction (OPI) has received federal approval for a one-year waiver to conduct a pilot program that replaces end-of-year testing with continuous "through-year" assessments for students in grades three through eight for reading/language arts and math.
The waiver allows OPI to implement the Montana Alternative Student Testing pilot program, providing real-time assessment data to educators and parents throughout the school year, enabling better insights into student performance.
The OPI's long-term goal is to replace traditional year-end testing with these continuous assessments, offering teachers more actionable data and aligning testing with local curricula.
