The scoring system for the NJGPA is used to assess whether students meet the minimum proficiency standards in English Language Arts and Mathematics, which are required for graduation.
A proficient score on the NJGPA indicates that the student has met the required level of understanding and skills in English Language Arts and Mathematics to graduate from high school.
If a student scores below the proficient level, they must retake the NJGPA or complete an alternative assessment (such as a portfolio or other approved method) to fulfill the graduation requirement.
After the NJGPA is administered, students can access their scores through a secure online portal provided by the New Jersey Department of Education.
The NJGPA scoring system includes multiple performance levels: Advanced, Proficient, Basic, and Below Basic. These levels reflect the degree of proficiency a student has demonstrated in the subjects assessed.
