Summit View is working very hard towards student achievment, with the new law ""No child be left behind"" act it puts alot of pressure on all staff members. Summit view is communicating more with parents by sending weekly infomation packets home updating parents on different things that are happening in the school. Summit is also adding after school activites such as track and basketball. It truly is a well oraganized school were you have friendly, supportive and caring staff members.

About the tests


In 2011-2012 Arizona used the Arizona Instrument to Measure Standards (AIMS) to test students in reading and mathematics in grades 3 through 8 and 10, writing in grades 5, 6, 7, and 10, and in science in grades 4, 8 and 10. AIMS is a standards-based test, which means that it measures how well students have mastered Arizona learning standards. Students must pass the grade 10 AIMS in order to graduate. The goal is for all students to meet or exceed state standards on the test.

For high schools, AIMS results, AYP status and graduation/dropout rates are used. Schools are identified as Excelling, Highly Performing, Performing Plus, Performing, Underperforming, Failing to Meet Academic Standards or Pending.
