The SECA (Social-Emotional Competency Assessment) is no longer a student-facing assessment for grades PK–4. Instead, it is recommended that teachers use a rubric for each PK-4 student during the designated assessment window, or when needed for a student.

⭐These steps can be followed for ANY grade PK-12, if you'd prefer to administer the SECA with pencil/paper.
To utilize the SECA (Social-Emotional Competency Assessment), your organization must have an active subscription to Compass Curriculum Student.
