Texas Assessment Program
STAAR Math is not one fixed-length test. TEA publishes separate assessed-curriculum documents and blueprints for grades 3-8 mathematics and Algebra I, with official item counts ranging from 30 questions in grade 3 to 50 questions in Algebra I. The program is primarily online, uses TEKS-aligned items, and reports performance in four levels: Masters Grade Level, Meets Grade Level, Approaches Grade Level, and Did Not Meet Grade Level. Students at Approaches Grade Level or higher have passed the assessment.
