CAPT Test Information
Each spring Amity's sophomores will participate in both CAPT testing and the CAPT task (or lab). Information regarding the CAPTs is available on the web from the Connecticut Department of Education website.
CAPT testing in the science areas is detailed in Connecticut Academic Performance Test - Second Generation, Science Handbook, 2001 (143 pp.) which can be accessed using Adobe Acrobat Reader at http://www.state.ct.us/sde/dtl/curriculum/currsci_publ_capt.htm
