FRIDAY, MAY 23 is the last day to assess your students

The PALS spring assessment window is open until 
May 23.
  • The spring assessment window in Wisconsin is April 28 through May 23. You may enter spring scores into the PALS Online System any time between April 28 and June 6.
  • All students must be assessed during the spring window, regardless of their fall scores. 
Updating records before spring score entry
  • Remember to add any new students to your Class List. These students need to be assessed, even if they weren't assessed in the fall. It's okay to remove students who have moved away. Their data will be preserved. 
  • Take note of any IEP updates that might require changes to students' accommodations and/or disability status in the PALS Online System. Make sure these changes are made before entering scores. Once scores have been entered, the disability field for that student is locked until the next screening window.
  • You have everything you need for assessment in your Form A Teacher Set -- the same set you used in the fall.

PALS spring reports
  • During the PALS spring assessment window, the PALS Online Score Entry and Reporting System will only accept complete score entry; no required tasks may be omitted. Required tasks are outlined in each Administration & Scoring Guide and will be prompted during score entry into the Online System.  
  • The PALS Online System offers several reports that are available only during the spring, which can be viewed on the History tab once logged into your PALS Online account. Notice also the various history and growth reports at the classroom level.  
  • While all of your PALS data is permanently stored and available to you in future years through the Data Downloads, it's a good idea to print out any other reports in the spring that you may want to view in future years for data analysis, as some of them are only visible during the spring window of the school year in which the data was collected. This is also true for PALS Quick Check reports.
