Fall Optional for Seniors
Starting in Fall 2020, New Mexico will administer a state-funded, SAT School Day with Essay as part of the accountability system. This exam aligns to academic standards, and reflects skills and knowledge already taught in the classroom by measuring math, reading, and writing. The Fall test administration is for seniors only (grade 12). It is optional and paper based only.
