About the Pennsylvania System of School Assessment (PSSA)
In Pennsylvania, the Pennsylvania System of School Assessment (PSSA) is the standard math assessment for elementary students. Given April–May, it evaluates skills from the Pennsylvania Core Standards: Mathematics (PA Core).
For grade 8 math, the PSSA assesses knowledge across areas like the number system, expressions & equations, functions, geometry, and more. Students encounter multiple-choice, constructed-response, and performance-based items.
We’ve aligned our practice tests to the PSSA in every way — content coverage, question types, and difficulty — so students are truly ready.
