Take a smarter approach to benchmark assessments

Take Action

PSEA is working with elected officials from both parties to reduce high-stakes standardized testing and to take a smarter approach to student assessment in our schools. PSEA is supporting a package of bills to help move Pennsylvania toward that goal.

Send a message to your state lawmakers to support one piece of that package that will prohibit public school entities from purchasing assessments from a private vendor that are designed to predict a student’s ability to succeed on the PSSA or Keystone Exams (commonly known as benchmark assessments).

  • Please do not use your school district email address to email state legislators. PSEA advises members not to send messages during instructional time, and comply with your school district's policies.
