Performance Matters Formative Assessment Updates
Performance Matters formative assessment accounts have been created for principals, building testing coordinators, and teachers.
For logging in, Performance Matters uses a Single Sign-On system configured through Microsoft. When users click the link while already signed into their Microsoft account, they are directed into the site without being prompted for a separate username or password.
Here are the links for the staff and student logins:
Staff Login: https://unify.performancematters.com/?idp=tnShelbycbe_azure
Student Login: https://ola.performancematters.com/ola/ola.html?clientCode=tnShelbycbe
Staff and students should also be able to log in through Clever. In Clever, the Performance Matters icon should be under “Testing Prep”.
As a reminder, in-person professional development sessions for Performance Matters are next week, September 2-5. Space is limited, so only two people per school, the building testing coordinator and another person, should sign up for a session. Search for code 48686 in PLZ.
TVAAS Update
TVAAS results from 2024-2025 have been posted on the public TVAAS website here. Therefore, 2024-2025 TVAAS results are no longer embargoed.
PreACT and ACT Professional Development
For high schools, two professional development sessions will be provided that will cover both the PreACT and the ACT. Search for course number 48838 in PLZ. One session is September 10 from noon to 2 p.m.; the other session is September 11 from 9 a.m. to 11 a.m. Both sessions are virtual. Each session will have the same content, so individuals need to attend only one session.
Middle schools will be participating in PreACT only. A PreACT PD session will be offered for middle schools on September 11 from 12:30 p.m. to 2:30 p.m. Search for code 48839 in PLZ. This session will be virtual.
