WY-TOPP Interims (optional)

Optional Interims include ELA and mathematics assessments for students in grades 1-10, and science for students in grades 4, 8, and 10. These assessments represent an optional, mini-summative opportunity for districts to gather a baseline set of data to inform curricular decisions for the coming school year. To ensure all educators are prepared to administer these assessments, review the following testing documents:
- Test Information Distribution Engine (TIDE) Manual.
- Test Administrator User Guide.
- Fall and Winter Test Administration Manual.
Beginning with fall 2023 administration, interim assessments will be fully secure, making it vital that districts choosing to participate in the Fall and Winter Interim administration windows conduct assessment security training and gather signed Wyoming Assessment Security Agreements for K-12 Statewide Assessments. For more information refer to Wyoming’s Assessment Security Guide.

These assessments are semi-secure and can be used as classroom assessments, however should not be shared with an entire class for instruction.
