PSSA & Keystone Performance

• Actual Performance files: calculated using actual student performance levels. • Accountability Performance files: calculated using the student performance levels used for accountability reporting purposes, which are revised to meet state mandated caps for PASA.

Both files contain results for grades 3-8 and 11 on the English Language Arts (ELA), Mathematics, and Science portions of the Pennsylvania System of School Assessment (PSSA) exam. They also include results for grade 11 on the Algebra I, Biology, and Literature exams that make up the Keystone end-of-course assessments. Results are reported for All Students, and are also broken down by Gender, Ethnicity, English Language Learner (ELL) status, Special Education (IEP) status, and Economically Disadvantaged status.
