Testing

At AJUSD, we use a variety of assessments to do more than just measure performance. We track student growth over time, uncover individual strengths and challenges, and shape classroom instruction to help every learner reach their full potential. These tools help us make sure students are not only meeting standards but are truly prepared for what’s next.

  • AASA (Arizona’s Academic Standards Assessment)
