About the Tests

- The results for reading/language arts and math are displayed on GreatSchools profiles.
- The NDSA is a standards-based test, which means it measures how well students are mastering the specific skills defined for each grade by the state of North Dakota.
- The goal is for all students to score at or above the proficient level.
