Palmetto Assessment of State Standards

The Palmetto Assessment of State Standards is a United States standards-aligned test designed to meet No Child Left Behind (NCLB) requirements. It is administered in grades 3-8 in writing, ELA, mathematics, science, and social studies.[1][2]

The Palmetto Assessment of State Standards reports out Lexile measures for every student.[3] A Lexile measure can be used to match readers with targeted text and monitor growth in reading ability.
