Fort Wayne Schools To Skip Online ISTEP+ Tests

Last updated on Tuesday, April 29, 2014

(UNDATED) - Leaders with a Fort Wayne school district say they’ll skip online ISTEP+ tests for more reliable paper exams.

Fort Wayne Community Schools officials announced Monday they weren't confident in the ability of the testing company, CTB-McGraw Hill to provide uninterrupted service - an issue that plagued the process last spring.

The second round of tests are scheduled to begin this week around the state. Students in grades, three through eight will take the ISTEP+ or IMAST exams.

The written test won't be available until late May.
