2018 SAGE Writing for Grades 9-10

During their November meeting, the State Board of Education directed that the writing portion of the 9th and 10th grade ELA SAGE Summative assessments be removed for this year. This change will take effect starting with the spring 2018 SAGE Summative window, which begins on March 20, 2018. Students will still earn an overall scale score and proficiency level based on the ELA reading portion of the SAGE.

The writing portion of the ELA SAGE for grades 3-8 will still be administered.

The Evaluation, Research & Accountability Department will notify individual school Testing Coordinators.

Please contact Ben Jameson via email or at 801-567-8243 with any questions.
