Statewide test results: 80 percent of Balmoral students failed math

Scores2

About 20 percent of Balmoral Elementary School students passed annual math assessments in 2018 and 80 percent of students failed, according to a Will 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 Balmoral Elementary School math scores, about 20 percent met expectations and 0.4 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 26 percent approached expectations, while 31 percent partially met expectations and 23 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 Balmoral Elementary School, which enrolled 483 students in 2018, 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.
