Assessment & Standards of LearningVirginia supports teaching and learning through statewide system of support and accountability for the commonwealth’s public schools and school divisions.
The commonwealth sets rigorous academic standards, known as the Standards of Learning (SOL), and measures achievement through annual SOL tests and alternative and alternate assessments. The system provides schools, school divisions and the Virginia Department of Education with critical data to inform the development and implementation of effective instructional strategies and best practices. |
