CAASPP INFO
Why is CAASPP Important?
CAASPP results play a critical role in college admissions, school rankings, and how our community is viewed, as they are one of the only publicly available academic measures used to compare schools. Strong performance shows colleges that our students are prepared for college-level work and helps guide teachers and administrators in identifying strengths, growth areas, and opportunities for additional support, enrichment, and advanced placement.
CAASPP Overview
We are excited to launch this year’s CAASPP statewide assessments for all 11th grade students beginning in March, with English Language Arts testing scheduled for March 17–20, Mathematics from March 24–27, and Science from March 31–April 3. Parent meetings will be held in the RUHS Library on Wednesday, March 5, 2026, at 4:00 p.m. and Wednesday, March 11, 2026, at 4:00 p.m. to share important information and partner with families in supporting student success.
Celebrating CAASPP Student Progress and Participation
To make this experience positive and motivating, we are celebrating both effort and achievement. Students who attend and actively participate in testing will be entered into classroom raffles for prizes and gift cards. Any student who grows by at least one performance level will be invited to a special food truck celebration, and students who earn a Level 3 (Proficient) or Level 4 (Advanced) in any subject will also receive a food truck invitation. Students who achieve a 3 or 4 in all three areas—Science, Math, and ELA—will earn a graduation cord in recognition of their outstanding accomplishment. These incentives and expectations will be highlighted at the CAASPP Junior Class Assembly on March 11, 2026. Together, with strong effort, engagement, and community pride, we can ensure our CAASPP results truly reflect the excellence of our students and the strength of our school community.
RUHS CAASPP and CAST Goals
We are pleased to share our 2025–2026 SMART Goals, which reflect our commitment to continuous improvement and academic excellence for all students.
Goal #1 is to achieve at least 95% student participation in the CAASPP while increasing overall student performance in English Language Arts, Mathematics, and Science by 4%.
Goal #2 is that within the next three years, our school will rank consistently among the top three schools in the South Bay in both ELA and Mathematics.
Goal #3 is to become the top-ranked school in science within the next three years.
With continued partnership between students, families, and staff, we are confident that these goals will drive meaningful growth and position our school as a leader in academic excellence across the South Bay.
CALIFORNIA SCHOLARSHIP FEDERATION
The CSF (California Scholarship Federation) honor roll registration window will be open February 20th through Monday, March 9th. Students in grades 9-12 who qualify and want to join should fill out an application and bring it, along with their February report card, to be stamped in room 706 at lunch (no transcripts allowed, as they don't have citizenship marks; Ms. V. can do a grade check if you absolutely can't find your report card, but that takes much longer, so please bring the report card if you have it). The stamped form and $5 (check, credit card, or cash) are due no later than 3/9. You may submit this at the ASB finance office or, if you have exact change and don't need a receipt, to Ms. V. in room 706. The window will close on Monday, March 9th, and late applications will not be accepted.
Freshman may now apply for CSF; however, you do not start earning semesters toward seal bearer until you have sophomore grades in February 2027. Seniors, you need at least one semester of senior grades out of the four required for seal bearer, so don't miss this window if you qualify! The grade restrictions are a bit looser senior year: seniors applying at the start of their second semester or at graduation may use three (3) courses from LIST II and none from LIST I to earn their ten points. Additional courses may be taken from any LIST, including LIST III.
Applications and more information are available on the CSF page on the CSF Google Classroom (code: avmen2jj) or the RUHS website (under Programs and Activities).
