VVAAS Resources for Parents
Student Assessment Summary (SAS) Reports
VDOE and local school divisions now provide parents access to their child’s SOL test performance history reports. Families will receive the SAS report and the State Superintendent's letter from their student's school by February 1, 2025. Each Student Assessment Summary provides information about a student's SOL test patterns and may help identify places where additional educational support may be needed or highlight accelerated learning opportunities. This information along with a student’s school level information and 2024 SOL test results provides context when engaging with a student’s teachers and school about his/her education.
