•Steady decrease in students scoring in the
Needs Improvement and Warning ranges
•Sharp decrease in the number of students
scoring in the Needs Improvement and
Warning/Failing ranges
•Steady Advanced range scores over the last
four years
•We need to continue to monitor the Long
Composition scores
•2013 scores showed the scores we are looking
for – increase in Advanced and Proficient
ranges and decrease in the Needs Improvement
and Warning/Failing ranges
