CAASPP Student Score Reports
Dear Parent(s) or Guardian(s),
At the end of the last school year, your child enrolled in grade 3-8 or 11/12 participated in computer-based assessments as part of the Assessment of Student Performance and Progress (CAASPP), which includes the Smarter Balanced assessments for English Language Arts (ELA) and Mathematics, as well as the California Alternate Assessments (CAA), among others.
Compton Unified School District (CUSD) views these assessements as one way to provide parents and teachers with information regarding student progress towards college and career readiness. CUSD is using these scores as part of one of many measures to identify student strengths and areas of needs, and will also use scores to continuously improve high-quality instruction.
Student score reports can now be accessed electronically through the Aeries Parent Portal. When you provided the district with a personal email account, an Aeries Portal account was set up automatically.
Sincerely,
Research & Evaluation Department
Compton Unified School District

Guides to Understanding the CAASPP Student Score Reports
Electronic student score reports provides the following benefits:
Convenient
Now families will be able to securely access current and historical electronic Student Score Reports by smartphone, tablet, or computer through the district’s parent portal. Receiving a child’s test results will no longer rely on a one-time mailing that may or may not reach the family.
Prompt
Families will have earlier access to their child’s electronic Student Score Report. In past years, families had to wait for the paper version of the Student Score Report to arrive in the mail.
Efficient
The district costs associated with shipping, such as postage and staff time to package and mail paper Student Score Reports, will be greatly reduced or eliminated. School districts may continue to communicate using traditional paper reports for cases in which it is necessary or more appropriate.
Engaging
Electronic Student Score Reports promotes the increased use of a district’s parent portal as part of a secure “one-stop shop” for families to access their child’s school information, such as assignments, test results, grades, and attendance records.
Accessible
The electronic Student Score Reports will be available in English, Spanish, Traditional Chinese, Vietnamese, and Filipino. In the future, Student Score Reports will also be made available in other languages.
Contemporary
Because the electronic Student Score Reports are not limited to one sheet of paper, they provide a future opportunity to deliver more dynamic and detailed information about a student’s progress.
