On November 2014 the Arizona
State Board of Education adopted a new statewide assessment, AzMERIT,
for Arizona students. Throughout the month of April, all the 3rd-6th
grade students at Legend Springs will be taking the ELA Reading, Writing
and Math tests from AzMERIT. In addition, the 4th grade students
will be taking the AIMS Science test.
