Teachers API act at Vallejo High leads to state academic penalty – Vallejo Times Herald

By Lanz Christian Bañes

Vallejo High School has been stripped of its Academic Performance Index score this year due to a teachers violation of a standardized test security affidavit, according to documents that surfaced earlier this week.

The API is the states measure of academic achievement and is based primarily on state standardized tests.

During the science portion of the exam earlier this year at Vallejo High, the teacher administering the test asked students to use a testing strategy in which, on a separate piece of paper, students jotted down the number of the questions into three categories: those they knew, those they might know, and those they did not know,  according to the irregularity report.
