State Accountability
Each Spring, Laveen School District administers statewide academic assessments provided by the State of Arizona to measure how well students are learning. Arizona’s Academic Standards Assessment (AASA) is administered in grades 3-8 in English Language Arts and Mathematics. Arizona’s Science Assessment (AzSCI) assessment is also administered in grades 5 and 8. These assessments are aligned to the Arizona Academic Standards adopted in 2016. Previous and similar assessments were called AzMERIT, AzM2, and AIMS Science.
The State Board of Education developed the A-F Accountability Framework and releases A-F letter grades based on state assessments. The A-F Accountability Framework is refined by the State Board of Education on an annual basis.
