Standards throughout the school year. Your student’s results from PM3 will show how well your student has mastered the grade-level content standards.
Additionally, A passing score (level 3 or higher) is required for 10th-grade students in order to satisfy their ELA graduation assessment requirement. The FAST ELA Reading PM3 is administered in one 120-minute session, and students may work up to the end of the school day.
