What is a characteristic of Level 3 achievement level?

• A. On grade level success, though the student may need additional support to excel in the next grade.
• B. Not on grade level
• C. Exceeds grade level expectations
• D. Needs improvement

Answer: (A)

Level 3 shows that a student is meeting the grade-level standards for math. They can understand and apply the skills expected at their grade, solving routine problems correctly and with solid understanding. The note that they may need additional support to excel in the next grade means they’re ready for current grade work but could benefit from some extra challenge or targeted help to push beyond and reach higher-level mastery. They’re not below grade level, and they aren’t already exceeding expectations, but they’re doing well enough to be considered on track with room to grow.
