Arizona LEARNS - Researching Arizona Schools For Your Children
In 2002, Arizona governor Jane Dee Hull signed House Bill 2658, also known as "Arizona LEARNS." Arizona LEARNS is a rating system for Arizona schools that assigns one of four categories to schools:
Underperforming - does not yet meet state performance and progress goals.
Maintaining Performance - meets state performance goals; needs improvement to meet progress goals.
Improving - Exceeds state performance and progress goals.
Excelling - for grades K - 8, 90% of pupils passed all subject areas of the AIMS test and achieved one year of academic progress in all subject areas of the Arizona measure of academic progress; for grades 9 - 12, 90% of pupils passed all subject areas of the AIMS test, the dropout rate is 6% or less, and the school's graduation rate is 90% or better.
The current ratings are based on three years of performance. Arizona has received federal grant money that is to be used to improve underperforming schools.
