• Segerstrom's 2007 California Standardized Test (CST) Results
     
     
    About the CSTs (taken from the California Department of Education)
    The California Standards Tests in English-language arts, mathematics, science, and history-social science are administered only to students in California public schools. Except for a writing component that is administered as part of the grade four and seven English-language arts tests, all questions are multiple choice. These tests were developed specifically to assess students' knowledge of the California content standards. The State Board of Education adopted these standards that specify what all California children are expected to know and be able to do in each grade or course. The 2007 CSTs were required for students who were enrolled in the following grades/courses at the time of testing or who had completed a course during the 2006–07 school year, including 2006 summer school.
