This file includes the combined students performance results from the administrations of the AzMERIT statewide assessment, the Multi-State Alternative Assessment (MSAA) alternative statewide assessment, the state administration of the ACT assessment for those schools using it as their state assessment, and the state administration of the SAT assessment for those schools using it as <\/SPAN><\/SPAN><\/P>

their state assessment. This file contains reports of the percentage of Arizona public school students who passed the statewide assessments and the percentage at each performance level. The report includes percentages for Arizona public schools, districts and charter holders, county, and statewide results.<\/SPAN><\/SPAN><\/P>

AzMERIT is Arizona\u2019s statewide achievement test. Arizona public school students in Grades 3 through high school take AzMERIT. Students in Grades 3 through 8 take an assessment in English Language Arts (ELA) and Math at their grade level. Students taking high school level English and Math take End-of-Course assessments that test their proficiency in these subjects.<\/SPAN><\/SPAN><\/P>

The Menu of Assessments is a menu of optional assessments a school can choose to offer to its students in Grade 11 in place of the AzMERIT statewide achievement test. <\/SPAN><\/SPAN><\/P>

MSAA is Arizona\u2019s alternate statewide achievement test for eligible students with significant cognitive disabilities. The MSAA alternate assessment is based on alternate achievement standards (AA-AAS) for students with the most significant cognitive disabilities. Eligible Arizona public school students take the MSAA Alternate Assessments for ELA and Mathematics in Grades 3 through 8 and Grade 11.<\/SPAN><\/SPAN><\/P>

Valid test results were included for students with an enrollment in an Arizona public school on the first date of the Fall or Spring enrollment test windows. Results are counted at the school in which a student was administered the assessment. If a student took the same assessment in both the Fall and the Spring test window, only the higher of the two scores is included. If a student took a different assessment in the Fall and the Spring test windows, both scores are included. The source of the subgroup and ethnicity data is the Arizona Education Data Standards (AzEDS), which is reported by Districts and Charter Holders to the Arizona Department of Education. <\/SPAN><\/SPAN><\/P>

When a group in this report has 10 or fewer students, showing the achievement information may risk an individual student\u2019s anonymity. In these cases, we do not report any achievement results for that group, and you will see the (\u201c*\u201d or null) symbol instead. Likewise, when all students in a group score at the same performance level, reporting \u201c100%\u201d or \u201c0%\u201d would violate each student\u2019s anonymity. To protect students' anonymity, we report the percent passing as (\">98%\" or 99) if either 99% or 100% of students in a group pass and we do not report the breakdown for each performance level. Likewise, we report the percent passing as (\"<2%\" or 1) if either 1% or 0% of students in a group pass, and we do not report the breakdown for each performance level. <\/SPAN><\/P>

In addition, rounding the percentages allows us to offer additional anonymity while still providing the most accurate data. Because of this, percentages of the performance levels may not total to 100% or precisely equal the percentage passing. <\/SPAN><\/SPAN><\/P>

This data set features historical data from the fiscal year 2015 to 2024.<\/SPAN><\/P>
