Subject: Ohio State Test results released on Progress Book

In accordance with HB33 which requires school districts to make Ohio State Test (OST) scores
available to parents by June 30th each year, Spring 2026 Ohio State Test results for students in
grades 3-12 have been posted on your Progress Book parent/student portal and app. Detailed family
reports prepared by the Ohio Department of Education and Workforce will arrive in the District in late
July and will be sent home, as they have been in the past.

You can access the OST scores in two ways:
     1. Log into Progress Book from the Parent Tab of the school webpage as if to check grades,
         select Assessment Scores from the menu icon (top left) and choose Next Generation
         Assessments for students in grades 3-8 or End of Course Exam for students in grade 9-12.
     2. Or, using the Progress Book app, select Assessment Scores from the menu icon (bottom left)
         and select Next Generation Assessments (gr. 3-8) or End-of-Course Exam from the drop down
         arrow next to Kindergarten Readiness Assessments.

The scores for each assessment are reported as a scaled score and a performance level. A scaled
score of 700 is required to be proficient on all Ohio State Tests. Performance levels are determined
by the scaled score. On Progress Book, the performance level is given as 1-5; and they are
presented on family reports as Limited(1), Basic(2), Proficient(3), Accomplished(4), and Advanced(5).
If you have any questions regarding accessing your child’s Ohio State Test scores on Progress Book,
please contact me.
