Arizona’s Instrument to Measure Standards will soon fade into the state’s educational history.
On March 28, Gov. Jan Brewer signed House Bill 2425, legislation that enables the Arizona Board of Education to replace AIMS with an improved performance assessment aligned with the Arizona Common Core standards.
“I am proud to sign HB2425 today, as Arizona can accept nothing less than the best classrooms possible for our students,” Brewer said. “Our children must be able to compete on a global stage. The era of low expectations and minimum-competency is over.”
