"That's the best indicator we are moving in the right direction," Superintendent Kurt Stanic said.

The right direction?

The state achievement requirement for grades 3-8 is 75%.

Students in 3rd Grade scored an average of 54.9% which was 20.1% below the state minimum requirement.

Students in 4th grade scored an average of 45.43% which was 29.57% below the state minimum requirement.

Students in 5th grade scored an average of 26.35% which was 48.65% below the state minimum requirement.

Students in 6th grade scored an average of 46.2% which was 28.8% below the state minimum requirement.

Students in 7th grade scored an average of 47.83% which was 27.17% below the state minimum requirement.

Students in 8th grade scored an average of 26.88% which was 48.13% below the state minimum requirement.

Students taking the 10th grade Ohio Graduation Test scored an average of 58.72% which was 16.28% below the state minimum requirement.

Students taking the 11th grade Ohio Graduation Test scored an average of 76.18% which was 8.82% below the state minimum requirement.

Considering the dismal record of achievement thus far it wasn't surprising to see that they also failed to reach the minimum requirements for attendance as well as graduation.
