About the Tests

• In 2010-2011 Alaska used the Standards Based Assessment (SBA) to test students in grades 3 through 10 in reading, math and writing, and in grades 4, 8 and 10 in science.
• The SBA is a standards-based test, which means it measures specific skills defined for each grade by the state of Alaska.
• The goal is for all students to score at or above the proficient level.

• The different student groups are identified by the Alaska Department of Education and Early Development. If there are fewer than 5 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 the proficient level.
