Interim Assessments are assessments created by the State. These assessments are given to students at pre-determined intervals. The purpose of these assessments is to determine student achievement on standards. They are often used to identify patterns of both strengths and weaknesses in learning for groups of students so that teachers can re-teach critical content and skills. Interim assessments will be given online through the CAASPP website.
