Stanford Achievement Test Series, Tenth Edition (Stanford 10) Guide Teaching and Learning Toward High Academic Standards

Assessment with Stanford 10 gives educators objective, valid evidence of what students know and

are able to do and helps them make data-driven decisions. A range of new, user-friendly score reports

was designed for Stanford 10 with input from administrators and teachers across the country. These

reports support the expanding needs of teachers, parents, and administrators. A color-enhanced

format simplifies the reports and makes them easy to read.
