About the Tests

In 2007-2008 Idaho used the Idaho Standards Achievement Test (ISAT) to test students in grades 3 through 8 and 10 in reading, math and language usage, and in grades 5, 7 and 10 in science.
The scores from the spring administration are displayed on GreatSchools profiles.
The grade 10 ISAT is a high school graduation requirement.
The ISAT is a standards-based test, which means it measures how well students are mastering the specific skills defined for each grade by the state of Idaho.
The goal is for all students to score at or above the proficient level.

About the Tests

In 2007-2008 Idaho used the Idaho Standards Achievement Test (ISAT) to test students in grades 3 through 8 and 10 in reading, math and language usage, and in grades 5, 7 and 10 in science.

The grade 10 ISAT is a high school graduation requirement.
The ISAT is a standards-based test, which means it measures how well students are mastering the specific skills defined for each grade by the state of Idaho.
The different student groups are identified by the Idaho Department of Education. If there are fewer than 11 students in a particular group in a school, the state doesn't report data for that group.
The goal is for all students to score at or above the proficient level.
