STAR Test Results Solid in Calaveras, Tuolumne Counties

The Union Democrat, Thursday, August 14
"The California Department of Education released the results of the spring STAR tests and, for the most part, Tuolumne and Calaveras county schools performed better than their state counterparts.
Each county improved in the majority of areas — but both declined in others, like geometry. The Standardized Testing and Reporting tests cover several types of math, including general mathematics, algebra I, geometry and algebra II.
Tuolumne and Calaveras county students scored better than California as a whole in English-language arts, with the exception of second- and third-graders in Calaveras County. Local schools also scored lower than California in general math in eighth-grade and algebra I in eighth and 11-grades (and 10th in Calaveras). "


Congratulations to the local students and schools! For more detailed information regarding the test results, contact us at info@pcr1.com or 209.352.8289.
