About the Tests

In 2010-2011 Virginia used the Standards of Learning (SOL) tests to assess students in reading and math in grades 3 through 8, in writing in grades 5 and 8, science in grades in 3, 5 and 8, and history in grades 3 and 8.
The SOL tests are standards-based, which means they measure how well students are mastering specific skills defined for each grade by the state of Virginia.
The goal is for all students to pass the tests.

High school students must pass at least six SOL End-of-Course tests to graduate.
The goal is for all students to pass the tests.
