Phase In Incremental Passing Score on Graduation Assessment Requirements
The Maryland State Board has expressed a desire to align the Maryland assessment graduation requirements to the College and Career-Ready Standards to 750 on the PARCC Assessment or Performance Level 4. To achieve that, Maryland has adopted an incremental scoring implementation plan for English 10 and Algebra I. The table below represents the incremental scoring plan between 2016 and 2020.
School Year |
Passing Score |
2017-2018 |
733 |
2018-2019 |
741 |
2019-2020 |
750 |
Combined Score Pathway for PARRC
As the scales for PARCC and HSA are not equivalent, a combine score for all four assessments is not feasible. The passing score for biology is 400 and the passing score for government 394, with a combined score of 794. The table below outlines the incremental increase in the combined score for PARCC English 10 and Algebra I from the 2016-2017 school year to the 2019-2020 school year.
