What is the Stanford Achievement Test (STAT-10)?
The STAT-10 is similar to the Iowa Tests of Basic Skills (ITBS) taken by all FCSS students in grades 3, 5, and 8. Based upon demonstrated academic strengths, students will take either the reading or mathematics battery. The STAT-10 measures concepts and skills typically taught at the grade level of the child. The STAT-10 is administered in one 45-minute session. The resulting score is reported as a national percentile ranking to parents in the Achievement section on the Data Collection Instrument (DCI). The 90th percentile is the qualifying score. The STAT-10 is only administered once every two years.
