What can you expect from the mathematics section of the Georgia Milestones? • The Georgia Milestones Assessment System (Georgia Milestones) is a comprehensive summative assessment program spanning grades 3 through high school. • Mathematics will require demonstration of conceptual understanding of concepts, procedural skills, fluency, problem solving, modeling, and mathematical reasoning. • Georgia Milestones measures how well students have learned the knowledge and skills outlined in the state-adopted content standards.

What are the levels of achievement? There are 4 levels students can achieve on the Georgia Milestones. • Beginning Learners do not yet demonstrate proficiency in the knowledge and skills necessary at this grade level/course of learning, as specified in Georgia’s content standards. The students need substantial academic support to be prepared for the next grade level or course and to be on track for college and career readiness . • Developing Learners demonstrate partial proficiency in the knowledge and skills necessary at this grade level/course of learning, as specified in Georgia’s content standards.The students need additional academic support to ensure success in the next grade level or course and to be on track for college and career readiness . • Proficient Learners demonstrate proficiency in the knowledge and skills necessary at this grade level/course of learning, as specified in Georgia’s content standards. The students are prepared for the next grade level or course and are on track for college and career readiness . • Distinguished Learners demonstrate advanced proficiency in the knowledge and skills necessary at this grade level/course of learning, as specified in Georgia’s content standards. The students are well prepared for the next grade level or course and are well prepared for college and career readiness .
