Measure of Student Learning - Common Exams
This year, North Carolina schools will begin administering a new set of common exams called the Measure of Student Learning/Common Exams (MSL/CE). These common exams will measure student growth in core subjects and grades. We will start administering these tests at the end of this school year – Spring 2013, during the EOG/EOC testing window. The main purpose of these tests is to measure a teacher’s contribution to the academic growth of their students.
