Statewide test results: 63 percent of Emmons students failed math

Grade school 05

About 37 percent of Emmons Grade School students passed annual math assessments in 2017 and 63 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 Emmons Grade School math scores, about 34 percent met expectations and 2 percent 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 38 percent approached expectations, while 17 percent partially met expectations and 8 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 Emmons Grade School, which enrolled 317 students in 2017, surpassed state averages.

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

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