PROTECTING STUDENT CONFIDENTIALITY
In the reporting of group assessment data, the intent is to protect student privacy through procedures that systematically prevent members of the public from discerning student identity.
Guidelines provided by the Federal government state that in the reporting of assessment results, suppression of numbers should occur in categories where the counts are low, making it otherwise possible to infer the results of individuals.
In practice, it is common to suppress numbers where a group size is equal to ten or less and to suppress totals when it is possible to calculate back to the results of two students.

The new science assessments wil l be administered in Spring 2018 and wil l be al igned to the New Jersey Student Learning Standards for Science.
The new science assessments wil l be computer -based tests.
The NJDOE is sensit ive to the t iming of the rol l -out of the new assessments this year and, as a result , wi l l not include the new science assessments as par t of the state’s accountabil ity for the 2017 -18 school year under the New Jersey Quality Single Accountability Continuum (NJQSAC).
The science assessments wil l be administered in grades 5, 8 and 11 .
The grade 11 high school assessment wil l be a comprehensive science assessment.
The NJDOE is reaching out to educators with degrees in science to serve on Science Assessment Advisory Committees to ensure educators are working with the NJDOE throughout these transitions and are providing direct input regarding many aspects of the administration and implementation of the new assessments.
