PARCC Performance Levels

(NJ considers levels 4 and 5 to be passing)

• Level 4: Mee;ng grade-level expecta;ons (750-809)
• Level 5: Exceeding grade-level expecta;ons (810-850)

Approximate Ranges: Varies by test form and problem type.

Evidence Statement Analysis

• Evidence statements describe the knowledge and skills that an assessment

item/task elicits from students. These are derived directly from the Common Core State Standards.

• School Evidence Statement Analysis Reports are two-page reports which

analyze the performance of the PARCC Evidence Statements at a state, district and school level for each opera;onal item on the Spring 2018 PARCC Assessment.

• The evidence statements are placed in order on the graph from most to least

difficult.
