All School Administrators

Ben Jameson, Director of Evaluation, Research and Accountability
SUBJECT:
State Test Administration Data Systems Not Functioning
School administrators are asked to convey the following information to your teachers:
There are currently some issues with rostering between Skyward and the state data system (UTREx). This means that rosters in test administration systems will not be current for the first week of school rendering those systems unavailable for use with students. The affected systems include:
- Acadience Reading (paper/pencil testing will be used until the situation is resolved)
- Acadience Math (for data entry only; this is already a paper/pencil assessment)
- RISE (including benchmarks)
- Utah Aspire Plus and high school benchmarks
- Utah Compose
- KEEP Entry (paper/pencil scoring should be used until the situation is resolved)
- UTIPS (civics test)
School Administrators will be notified when the situation has been resolved by the state. Please contact Evaluation, Research & Accountability with questions or concerns.
