About the tests
- In 2010-2011 Arizona's Instrument to Measure Standards (AIMS) was used 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's 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.
