*Click on the video below for a brief explanation of the Georgia Milestones Assessment System (GMAS).
The Georgia Milestones Assessment System (GMAS) is a comprehensive end of grade assessment for grades 3 through high school.
Georgia Milestones measures how well students have learned the knowledge and skills outlined in the state-adopted standards for each subject area.
Elementary Students in grades 3 -5 take an end-of-grade assessment in the content areas of language arts, and mathematics. Students in grade 5 will also be assessed in science.
The GMAS is administered at the end of the school year, typically in April or early May. Each school district selects a local testing window within the state designated time-frame to administer the GMAS.
