Definition:
"An initiative to move Minnesota's statewide assessments to computer delivery is in process. An advisory committee of technology coordinators, district assessment coordinators, district administrators and MDE staff has been formed to consider potential barriers, determine what additional resources might be needed, and recommend solutions to the Commissioner.  TEAELS, TEAEM, and the Science MCA-II tests are currently in development for computer delivery."(Source MN Department of Ed website)

As the district begins to implement this initiative, we will use this web space to publish information for buildings.
