On March 6th, 7th and 8th, Central Senior High students will be participating in MME, ACT, and assessments.

To ensure the BEST possible assessment of what your son or daughter knows and is able to do, please make sure your child gets plenty of sleep the night before, has a good breakfast, and is on time.

Michigan Merit Exam Information
The purpose of the Michigan Merit Exam (MME) is to assess students’ understanding of Michigan High School Content Expectations (HSCE’s) in Mathematics, Reading, Science and Social Studies. It also helps students determine if they are keeping up with other students in the state who are at the same grade level.  

 

Students earn a scale score and performance level (1 through 4) in each subject:

PROFICENT: Level 1 = Exceed Standards, Level 2 = Met Standards

NOT PROFICIENT: Level 3 = Partially Proficient, Level 4 = Not Proficient

  

Explore, Plan & ACT (EPAS) Info

The purpose of the Educational Planning and Assessment System (EPAS) is to evaluate students’ workplace or college readiness . EPAS is a sequence of national assessments (EXPLORE à PLAN à ACT) given each spring that assesses student performance in English, Math, Reading, and Science. The culminating assessment - the ACT - is nationally recognized as a critical component of college admission and scholarship eligibility. The ACT has been in existence for over 50 years and has backed its’ statistical validity and reliability through years of scientific research and case studies.  

 

Students earn an overall and subject area composite score and national percentile. Each test also informs students if they are below, at, or above the College Readiness Benchmark (CRB) for each subject area. Students that are at or above these College Readiness Benchmarks have a 75% chance or better of passing their freshmen level college classes with a C or better.
