About the Tests

In 2006-2007 Nevada used the High School Proficiency Examination (HSPE) to assess high school students in reading, math and writing.
The HSPE is a high school graduation requirement.
The HSPE is a standards-based test, which means it measures specific skills defined for each grade by the state of Nevada.
The different student groups are identified by the Nevada Department of Education; if there are fewer than 10 students in a particular group in a school, the state doesn't report data for that group.
The goal is for all students to score at or above the state standard.
