About the Tests

In 2007-2008 New Mexico used the New Mexico High School Standards Assessment (NMHSSA) to test students in grade 11 in reading, math, science and social studies.
The NMHSSA is a standards-based test, which means that it measures how well students are mastering specific skills defined by the state of New Mexico.
The different student groups are identified by the New Mexico Public Education Department. If there are fewer than 10 students in a particular group, the state doesn't report data for that group.
The goal is for all students to score at or above proficient on the test.
