Unofficial statewide AzMERIT test results, obtained by The Arizona Republic, show gradual improvement since 2015, when students first took the exam, but the majority of Arizona’s students are still underperforming.

School letter grades and official AzMERIT scores will be announced in September.

What to know before looking at our charts

AzMERIT scores are divided into four performance levels: “minimally proficient,” partially proficient,” “proficient” and “highly proficient.” A student earns a “passing score” if they score at proficient or above. The test is administered in grades 3-11 and consists of a math and reading portion.
