Louisiana Educational Assessment Program
The Louisiana Educational Assessment Program (LEAP) is a criterion-reference testing program administered by the state of Louisiana. It is only administered in 4th and 8th grades in the subjects of ELA, mathematics, science, and social studies. It is graded on a scale with Advanced being the highest, and Unsatisfactory being the lowest. If you are in 4th grade, it determines whether you go to the 5th grade or not. If you're in the 8th grade, it determines whether you go to the 9th grade or not. The Leap is administered in spring and the results are given in the middle of May before school lets out for the summer. 4th and 8th graders are the most pressured children when it comes to Leap testing. Practice for the LEAP test begins in January. [1]
