The PAL program has reopened for registration and submission and the 2022–2023 PAL Candidate Assessment Handbook is now available.

Please note that with the 2022–2023 program year, the cost of PAL increased to $159 per task. Candidates with registrations prior to October 11, 2022, will maintain their registrations. Candidates whose registrations expired during the registration moratorium will have their registrations extended for a period which will be communicated to candidates.

Note that the first submission deadline of the 2022–2023 program year is Nov 17, 2022, with a score report date of Dec 22, 2022.

Please contact the Massachusetts Department of Elementary and Secondary Education (DESE) with questions about the PAL program.
