Oklahoma educators convened from across the state, CEQA established the performance level descriptors (PLDs) and the cut scores for this assessment. In addition, CEQA approved a three-year phase-in of the cut scores with 2014-15 being the first year and full
implementation taking place in 2016-17. Final results for the Grade 7 Geography administration are included in the final reports available to districts August 24, 2015.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
