How the AASA reports it

AASA is Arizona’s statewide achievement test for Grades 3-8, and its math item specifications are aligned to Arizona’s 2016 Mathematics Standards rather than a national framework like SBAC or SAT. The public AASA page does not show a fixed common-core-style domain blueprint; instead, the official math coverage is embedded in grade-level item specifications and scoring guides.

Blueprint & weighting

AASA uses the Independent / state-specific framework (by grade domains structure).
