2021-22 CAASPP Test Security Affidavit For Test Site Coordinators,
Test Examiners, Test Administrators, Proctors, Translators, Scribes,
and Any Other Person Having Access to CAASPP Tests
For All CAASPP Assessments, Including Field Tests
I, ____________________________________________, acknowledge that I will have access to one or
more of the California Assessment of Student Performance and Progress (CAASPP) achievement tests
pursuant to Education Code section 60640, for the purpose of administering the test(s). I understand that
these materials are highly secure and may be under copyright restrictions and it is my professional
responsibility to protect their security as follows:
(1) I will not divulge the contents of the CAASPP achievement tests and corresponding test materials to
any other person through verbal, written, or any other means of communication. This includes, but is
not limited to, sharing or posting test content via the Internet or by email without the prior express
written permission of the CDE.
(2) I will not copy or take a photo of any part of the achievement test(s) or corresponding test materials.
This includes, but is not limited to, photocopying (including enlarging) and recording without the prior
expressed written permission of the CDE.
(3) Except during the actual testing administrations or as otherwise provided for by law, I will keep the
achievement test(s) and corresponding test materials secure until the test(s) are actually distributed to
pupils when tests and testing materials are checked in and out by the CAASPP test site coordinator.
Keeping materials secure means that test materials are required to be kept in a securely locked room
that can be entered only with a key or keycard and, when possible, in a locked storage cabinet within
that room.
(4) I will limit access to the achievement test(s) and corresponding test materials by test examinees to the
actual testing periods when they are taking the test(s). I understand that only pupils who are testing
and LEA staff participating in the test administration who have signed a CAASPP Test Security
Affidavit may be in the room when and where an achievement test is being administered.
(A) I will keep all assigned, generated, or created usernames, passwords, and logins secure and not
divulge pupil personal information to anyone other than the pupil to whom the information pertains
for the purpose of logging on to the test delivery system.
(B) I will not allow anyone other than the assigned pupils to log into their assigned test. I may assist
pupils with using their information to log into their assigned test.
(C) I will not use a pupil’s information to log in as a pupil or allow a pupil to log in using another pupil’s
information.
(5) I will not allow pupils to access electronic devices that allow them to access outside information,
communicate with other pupils, or photograph or copy test content. This includes, but is not limited to,
cell phones, personal digital assistants (PDAs), tablets, laptops, cameras, and electronic translation
devices.
(6) I will collect and account for all achievement test materials following each testing session and will not
permit pupils to remove any test materials by any means from the room(s) where testing takes place.
After each testing session, I will count all test booklets and answer documents before allowing any
pupil to leave the testing room and/or ensure that all pupils have properly logged off the test delivery
system.
(7) I will not review any achievement test questions, passages, performance tasks, or other test items
independently or with pupils or any other person at any time, including before, during, or following
testing. I understand that this includes any discussion between LEA staff for training or professional
development whether one-on-one or in a staff meeting.
