About the Tests

  • In 2006-2007 Arizona's Instrument to Measure Standards (AIMS) was used to test students in reading, writing and mathematics in grades 3 through 8 and 10.
  • AIMS is a standards-based test, which means that it measures how well students have mastered Arizona's learning standards.
  • The different subgroups are identified by the Arizona Department of Education; if there are fewer than ten students in a particular group in a school, the state does not report data for that group.
  • The goal is for all students to meet or exceed state standards on the test.
