What is CRCT?
The CRCT are tests administered to Georgia students to evaluate the acquisition of skills and knowledge described in the Georgia Performance Standards (GPS). In grades three through eight, tests are also given in reading, math, language arts, science and social studies. Since 2003, Reading and math test scores have been used in considering the promotion of students in grades three, five and eight. CRCT scores produce information on students, classrooms, schools, systems and state achievement in education. Results are reported in relation to the state standard as Below, Meets or Exceeds the standard.
