---  ELECTRONIC DEVICES ARE NOT PERMITTED IN TESTING ROOMS  ---

Electronic Devices are NOT PERMITTED in the testing room including: Cell Phones/Smart Phones/Electronic Devices/E-Readers/Nooks/Kindles/iPads/Tablets/Camera Ready Devices.  Violation of this rule will result in a "Do Not Score" label on the student's test booklet, as well as confiscation of the device and a Level II offense.

The West Chester Area School District is offering an opportunity to retest in August for any middle or high school student whose “best” score is non-proficient on the Biology or Algebra Keystone Exam.

Below are the actual testing dates for the WCASD. These dates fall within the time frame provided by the Pennsylvania Department of Education.

The Pennsylvania Department of Education canceled Keystone and PSSA testing last spring as a result of COVID-19. The 2020-2021 Keystone and PSSA assessment windows listed below have been provided to the West Chester Area School District.  If Keystone and PSSA assessments continue to be a requirement for districts in the spring, the district will communicate specific testing dates, protocols, and opt-out procedures at a later date.

Additional information on the PSSA Assessments and Keystone Exams may be found through the links located in the left column. Should you have any questions, please contact Steve Werner,  Assessment Supervisor. Download or print the 2019-20 State Assessment schedule.
