Abstract | Emboldened by the provisions of the Every Student Succeeds Act, state and local education leaders are increasingly interested in redesigning their systems of assessment to further align with college and career readiness and to support meaningful learning for all students. This paper presents stories from three states undertaking this work: Virginia, California, and Texas. All three states are activating promising ideas, practices, and policies with an emphasis on developing new systems of assessment that focus on local participation in design and development. The paper highlights both the commonalities across the three states in the types of new assessments they are introducing and how they are introducing them, and the differences among the states in how they are building political will and developing scale-up plans, including the policies to sustain the changes. It explains that state-level leadership and political capital can pave the way; bottom-up leadership and local innovation help to drive progress; and established regional, statewide, or national organizations can help drive and spread reform. The paper concluded by describing how attention to context and social dynamics lays the groundwork for capacity building.
