Successfully completing a Graduation Portfolio - see PBGR Home Page 4. Comprehensive Course Assessments - this page
The CCA is the one of the four measures of proficiency that students are required to complete in order to graduate from SKHS. Each student must submit 8 proficient (score of 3 or better) Comprehensive Course Assessments (CCA) over 4 years. 2 Math 2 English Language Arts 2 Science 2 Social Studies
- The CCA is defined as the Performance Based section of the final exam for each course.
- Students may substitute a math and/or science NECAP score of 3 or better for a CCA in math or science and a NECAP score of 3 or better in writing to replace an ELA CCA.
- Senior year CCA’s may be used to show proficiency when necessary though it is assumed that most students will submit work from the freshman, sophomore and junior years.
