About 12 percent of Whittier Elementary School students passed annual math assessments in 2017 and 88 percent of students failed, according to a Lake County Gazette analysis of the latest Illinois schools report card.

The Partnership for Assessment of Readiness for College and Careers, or PARCC, is administered to third- through eighth-graders in Illinois, testing them in reading and math based on Common Core standards.

According to Whittier Elementary School math scores, about 12 percent met expectations and none exceeded them. Students whose results are in either category are considered to be most ready to move on to the next level and are most prepared for college or work.

Another 27 percent approached expectations, while 32 percent partially met expectations and 29 percent did not meet them. Students who scored in these categories are not ready for the next level of schooling, according to the test.

Test results at Whittier Elementary School, which enrolled 625 students in 2017, fell below state averages.

Statewide, 31 percent of students passed the test and 69 percent failed.

Of students statewide who passed, only five percent 'exceeded' expectations.
