Massachusetts Comprehensive Assessment System (MCAS)
Students who attend Milestones Day School must take the MCAS test in accordance with state standards. To graduate with a Competency Determination (“traditional”) diploma from any public school or approved and accredited private special education school, like Milestones, students need to pass their high school coursework and earn enough credits to graduate (as set forth by Milestones and their home district). If a student has accommodations for assessments outlined in the student’s IEP, Milestones Day School will ensure that the student has these same accommodations for the student’s MCAS.
