The APS Student Progress Dashboard illustrates student proficiency in primary subjects over time, beginning with the 2019-20 school year. The Office of Academics uses this data to plan instruction for all students.
There are a variety of ways to view the data based on school, grade level or student subgroup. The student academic data is gathered from the school division’s primary assessments. APS teachers are using this data to identify students needing extra support and provide individualized extensions or interventions to help them progress in all areas.
