Algebra Readiness Initiative (ARI)

Virginia's Standards of Learning Algebra Readiness Initiative was approved by the General Assembly for implementation during the second year of the 2000-2002 biennium.

The purpose of the Algebra Readiness Initiative (ARI) is to assist school divisions in preparing students for success in algebra. School divisions are eligible for incentive payments to provide  mathematics intervention services to students in grades 6-9 who are at-risk of failing the Algebra I end-of-course test as demonstrated by their individual performance on diagnostic tests that have been approved by the Department of Education (DOE).

The Department of Education has made available to all school divisions in Virginia an online diagnostic test. School divisions have the option of using this online test or another test that meets specified criteria and is approved by the DOE.

For more information concerning Intervention Models, the Diagnostic Test, and Online Resources, please follow the links above.
