The Alabama Comprehensive Assessment Program (ACAP) is Alabama's statewide standardized assessment measuring student mastery of the Alabama Course of Study standards. ACAP replaced the former Scantron Performance Series assessment and covers grades 2-8 — notably starting at grade 2, which is earlier than most states. The test covers ELA and Mathematics at all tested grades, with Science added at grades 4, 6, and 8. ACAP is administered during a spring testing window and results help identify students who need additional academic support.
2026 ACAP Testing Window: March 16 - April 24, 2026. ELA and Mathematics are tested in grades 2-8. Science is tested in grades 4, 6, and 8. Districts select their specific testing dates within this state window.
| Grade | Subjects Tested |
|---|---|
| Grade 2 | English Language Arts and Mathematics |
| Grade 3 | English Language Arts and Mathematics |
| Grade 4 | ELA, Mathematics, and Science |
| Grade 5 | English Language Arts and Mathematics |
| Grade 6 | ELA, Mathematics, and Science |
| Grade 7 | English Language Arts and Mathematics |
| Grade 8 | ELA, Mathematics, and Science |
Alabama uses the following performance levels. 'Level 3 — Proficient' is the state target, meaning your child demonstrates adequate mastery of the Alabama Course of Study. Level 4 (Distinguished) indicates advanced performance. If your child scores Level 1 or 2, their school should provide additional intervention support.
Student demonstrates minimal understanding of grade-level content in the Alabama Course of Study.
Student demonstrates partial understanding but needs additional support to reach proficiency.
Student demonstrates adequate understanding and mastery of the Alabama Course of Study standards at grade level.
Student demonstrates thorough understanding and can apply knowledge in complex, real-world situations beyond grade-level expectations.
ACAP is administered online using a secure testing browser. Students have access to built-in tools including a calculator (where permitted), notepad, highlighter, and line reader. Practice tests are available through the Alabama State Department of Education to help students get comfortable with the digital format.
Alabama begins testing at grade 2, which is earlier than the typical grade 3 start in most states. The grade 2 ACAP focuses on foundational skills in reading and math, giving educators early data on student progress before the critical grade 3 transition.
ACAP includes selected response (multiple choice), technology-enhanced items (drag-and-drop, matching, sorting, multi-select), and constructed response questions requiring written explanations. Higher-point questions demand evidence-based reasoning.
Science is tested at grades 4, 6, and 8 — three testing points rather than the typical two (grades 5 and 8) in most states. This gives Alabama educators more frequent science assessment data across the K-8 span.
ACAP replaced the Scantron Performance Series assessment, bringing Alabama in line with most states in using a standards-based summative assessment. The Alabama State Department of Education has been updating the Alabama Course of Study standards, with new science standards emphasizing hands-on investigation and engineering practices. ACAP Interim assessments are also available throughout the year for formative use.
ACAP starts at grade 2 — most states begin standardized testing at grade 3. This gives Alabama families and teachers early data on student progress in reading and math foundations.
Science is tested at three grade bands (4, 6, 8) instead of the typical two (5, 8). This provides more frequent science assessment data and ensures science instruction isn't neglected in non-testing years.
Alabama maintains its own Alabama Course of Study standards rather than adopting Common Core directly. While there are similarities, the standards are tailored to Alabama's educational priorities.
ACAP Interim assessments are available throughout the school year, providing teachers with formative data to adjust instruction before the high-stakes spring summative test.
The grade 2 test is designed to be developmentally appropriate with simpler question formats and shorter sessions, recognizing that these are young students encountering their first standardized assessment.
If your child is in grade 2, this is their first standardized test. Focus on reducing anxiety — explain that it's just a way for the teacher to see what they've learned. Practice with the ALSDE's online practice tests so the computer format isn't a surprise.
Science grades are 4, 6, and 8 — three opportunities instead of two. If your child is approaching one of these grades, make sure science isn't being neglected in favor of only math and ELA practice.
The testing window (March 16 - April 24) is relatively early compared to some states. Make sure your child's study routine is strong by early March — don't wait until spring break to start reviewing.
Ask about ACAP Interim assessments — your child's school may administer these throughout the year. These mid-year checkpoints can flag weaknesses early so you can get targeted help before the summative spring test.
Level 3 (Proficient) is the target. If your child scored Level 1 or 2 last year, ask the school about their intervention plan. Alabama schools are required to provide additional support for students not meeting proficiency.
The ACAP is Alabama's standardized assessment for grades 2-8. Students are tested in Math and English/RLA every year, and Science in grades 5 and 8.
