In a typical year, the CRCT practice tests are created at three different levels...state, county and local school. All three test types are available for the students to take online. The tests that I create at the local (school) level will also be available for printing from the school website. A brief description of each type of test is below. If you have any questions about the OAS, please contact Allen Bullock at 770-736-4507 or via e-mail.

State Created Tests - Available via a student logging into the OAS system and selecting VIEW STUDENT TESTS. There are several practice tests in each subject area. These tests are short, typically 5-8 questions.

County Created Tests - Available via a student logging into the OAS system and selecting VIEW TEACHER ASSIGNED TESTS. There are typically 2-5 tests from each domain area. Currently there are 45 5th grade tests, 59 4th grade tests, 67 3rd grade tests, 37 2nd grade tests, and 38 1st grade tests. Using the chart located at the bottom of this page, you should be able to identify the domains covered on the various tests. These tests range from 10 to 35 questions in length, unless you see the word ALL in the title. The tests which include the word ALL in the title may be even longer.

School Created Tests - These tests are typically listed below the county created tests and have the word HOME in the title of the test. The word HOME comes right after the grade level in the title of the test. There are either 3 (1st and 2nd Grades) or 5 (3rd-5th Grades) tests from each subject area and each test includes questions from all of the domains within that subject area. These tests contain 20 questions. These tests are also available for printing via clicking on the CRCT Printable Tests link located at the top of this page (answer sheet included).

Your child should have come home on (or before) February 12th, 2010 with an OAS info sheet that contained his/her GTID number. Click here to see a copy of the letter that was sent home. If you did not receive this letter and need your child's GTID number and password, please call or e-mail me. Using this number and their password, a student can log in to the OAS to take practice CRCT tests.
