Arizona Letter Grades for Schools
- AZ Schools Graded
Arizona Department of Education has converted to an easy to understand school grading system of A through F to score the academic achievement levels of all Arizona schools for the 2010 – 2011 school year:
A – Excellent School Academic Achievement
B – Above Average School Academic Achievement
C – Average School Academic Achievement
D – Below Average School Academic Achievement
F - Below Average School Academic Achievement for 3 consecutive years. “F” schools are placed under the school improvement process by the Arizona Department of Education so that they can receive extra support and resources.
Students within the city limits of Chandler, Gilbert, Mesa and Scottsdale will attend schools in one of three or four school districts serving their municipality. Tempe students will attend one of two elementary school districts (Kyrene or Tempe) and then go on to attend a school in the Tempe High School district.
For your convenience a quick list containing the letter grades for Maricopa and Pinal County schools includes the multitude of Phoenix school districts.
An earlier post containing Arizona School Achievement Levels for the 2008-2009 and 2009 – 2010 school years has been updated to include 2010 – 2011 school year data to show the effect of more stringent testing standards mandated by “No Child Left Behind” federal legislation. (Previous Achievement Levels of Excellent and Highly Performing are now A and B letter grades, respectively).
Buyers of Chandler real estate for sale, Gilbert homes AZ, Houses for sale in Mesa AZ, Scottsdale condos and Phoenix homes for sale located in highly performing schools districts will be rewarded by their homes having a higher resale value when they decide to sell.
