STAAR Shows ‘Across-the-Board Improvements' for Grades 3-8

Looking at race, economically disadvantaged, and students who speak English as a second language, there were still gaps but all of those groups saw improvement. High school scores were released last week and those numbers barely improved"It's generally somewhat easier to see faster jumps with younger children than older children," said Morath."We are expanding our work in high school to try to strengthen the amount of academic support provided.

Texas put a lot of energy into reading this year, it appears to have worked. When asked Morath said perhaps it's time to do something similar in math, but he doesn't want to push too much and instead wants to tackle one subject at a time. Morath credits tutoring and summer learning for the gains, and pledges to continue the work moving the needle, especially in high school.

When will campus/district results be released?
