Statewide test results: 72 percent of Mable Woolsey students failed math

Grade school 05

About 28 percent of Mable Woolsey Elementary School students passed annual math assessments in 2017 and nearly three quarters of students failed, according to a Galesburg Reporter 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 Mable Woolsey Elementary School math scores, about 25 percent met expectations and 4 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 40 percent approached expectations, while 22 percent partially met expectations and 11 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 Mable Woolsey Elementary School, which enrolled 381 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.
