What Is Progress Learning?
About Arizona State Testing
ACT Aspire is a statewide test given to 9th grade students in Arizona. It is created by ACT (American College Testing) and is administered through Pearson in Arizona. It is intended to assess student readiness in English, math, reading, writing, and science.
The ACT Aspire is administered on the computer and on paper for students with accommodations. The testing window is from late March to mid April.
The testing window for 11th grade AzSCI is mid-March to mid-April.
Arizona requires grade 9 students to complete the ACT Aspire exam, which tests standard education in English (ELA) and Mathematics.
Grade 11 students are required to take the ACT as a standardized test. Grade 11 students are also required to take the AzSCI assessment, testing grade-appropriate science topics such as earth and space science, physical science, and life science.
High school students are also eligible to take national tests including:
- Advanced Placement
- General Common Core
- PSAT
- SAT
