The 4th and 5th grades took the Nebraska State Math Assessment last week. They did great. 82% of the 4th grade and 85% of the 5th grade scored higher than a 50% on the test. This a criterion-referenced test, not a norm-referenced test, so we won't know what the cut-off is for scoring at proficient until this summer. But it appears that the majority of our 4th and 5th grade students are proficient in math.
Testing in reading and math continues this week and next.
