Spring 1997 Test Administration Students in grades 3,4,5,6,7,8, and 10 are administered the state-mandated TAAS tests each spring.
Students take the reading and math portions every time they take the test.
In addition, students in grade 8 are also administered TAAS Science and Social Studies tests. By state law, before a student can receive a diploma from a Texas high school, he or she must pass all three individual exams - reading, math, and writing. Students get their first opportunity to pass the EXIT-Level of the TAAS tests in Grade 10. The following tables show the percentage of students on each campus not in special education who passed each individual test administered. The complete 1997 AEIS report will be sent to schools in November 1997.
