Each year our students take the AzMERIT tests required by the department of education. These tests include Algebra I, Geometry, Algebra II, English 9, English 10, and English 11. We can compare our achievment to that of the state of Arizona and to surrounding school districts. These results give us data to guide curriculum decisions, offer interventions to students, and affirm the work we do as a staff. The results also factor into our ADE letter grade. For 2018, our school earned an "A" letter grade. For 2019, letter grades will be determined by late October. After a remarkable year in 2018, I am pleased to share that our 2019 AzMERIT scores were fantastic as well. This sustained growth and success affirms the work our teachers are doing in regard to Beyond Textbooks and the interventions they provide. The 2019 overall average of scores was within 2% of our 2018 scores. Below you can see the results of each test.
