Where can I locate the testing calendar for New Mexico’s state assessments?
The dates for the New Mexico Statewide Assessment Program are available for the current year by clicking http://www.ped.state.nm.us/AssessmentAccountability/AssessmentEvaluation/index.html and navigating to the link called “Important Dates for NMSPA (New Mexico Statewide Assessment Program) 2008-2009.” You can access the testing windows for the various assessments in 2009 by clicking http://www.ped.state.nm.us/AssessmentAccountability/AssessmentEvaluation/dl09/2009-2010%20test%20calendar.pdf. HSCE stands for High School Competency Exam NMAPA stands for New Mexico Alternative Performance Assessment NMELPA stands for New Mexico English Language Performance Assessment SBA stands for Standards-based Assessment.
