Additionally, if you are finding the same result after waiting 48 hours for the system to update, contact the CALPADS office at calpads@cde.ca.gov 916-324-6738 and they will be able to look-up the individual student to investigate the issue further.]]> 2018-08-14 19:20:08 UTC https://padlet.com/clewis46/eeociaz5nm09/wish/273129049 QUESTION: Given the suggestion to begin the 2018 CAA for Science Year 2 pilot in November of 2017, and the delayed messaging regarding the CAA for Science Embedded Performance Tasks, are LEAs still responsible for completing all three CAA for Science Performance Tasks clewis46 https://padlet.com/clewis46/eeociaz5nm09/wish/273130006 2018-08-14 19:25:28 UTC https://padlet.com/clewis46/eeociaz5nm09/wish/273130006 CAASPP System Acronyms clewis46 https://padlet.com/clewis46/eeociaz5nm09/wish/273131238 2018-08-14 19:32:22 UTC https://padlet.com/clewis46/eeociaz5nm09/wish/273131238 CAASPP System Planned Downtime clewis46 https://padlet.com/clewis46/eeociaz5nm09/wish/273131766 August 28, 2018 - September 2, 2018 (First planned downtime of the
