District and state testing

On March 20, 2020, the U.S. Secretary of Education announced that students impacted by school closures due to the COVID-19 pandemic could bypass standardized statewide assessments for the 2019-20 school year.  Therefore, consistent with the federal guidelines and to protect students’ health and safety, Minnesota canceled its statewide assessments for last year (2019-20 school year). 

Students in Anoka-Hennepin take many types of assessments in their classroom. Below is a list of standardized tests given to all students in Anoka-Hennepin based on grade or group of students that meet the testing criteria.

The columns in the table below represent each grade (Kindergarten through 12th Grade) within the district. Each row within the table represents one of the tests or assessments that are given throughout the school year.

To obtain additional information about the specific assessment, click on the assessment name within the first column.
