Notes
This bank more than 15,000 questions (as of October 2023) from 27 states: AK, AZ, CA, CO, CT, DE, HI, KY, LA, MA, MD, ME, MN, MO, MS, NC, NH, NJ, NV, OH, OR, PA, RI, SC, VT, WI and WV. Four of the states are in a consortium called New England Common Assessment Program. Their items are indexed using the abbreviation NECAP. Maine is part of NECAP and also produces some tests separately. This bank is updated yearly with newly released questions.
The questions come from approximately 600 source documents, including released tests, curriculum frameworks, and teacher handbooks. These span more than two decades of work on standards-based assessment and instruction. Each source document is presented in its entirety. Individual questions are organized by topic or by standard.
