SSA Single Subject Acceleration

What is Single Subject Acceleration or SSA? Single Subject Acceleration (SSA) is the practice of placing a student in a higher-grade level in one subject area. This type of acceleration is for the purpose of providing access to appropriately challenging learning opportunities in either Math or English Language Arts. Students will test for SSA placement for the 2024-25 school year during the testing window indicated below. Requests for testing outside of this window will not be accepted. Please reach out to ckudla@wcpss.net with any questions.
