ACALETICS® Assessments/Prep Materials

ACALETICS® assessments are designed to:
• provide information to facilitate teacher planning
• confirm student mastery
• prepare students for high-stakes testing, including endurance and pacing.

ACALETICS® assessments should never be used punitively. We do NOT recommend that our assessments be used for grading purposes.
