I haven't see the 'official' report yet, but apparently schools failed this
years proficiency tests miserably this year. Of 600 schools reporting, only
1 passed. There is now a great uproar about the validity of the tests, in
part thrown into question by a Kent State Univ. professors examination of
it, which showed highest correlation for students' socio-economic background
rather than academic achievement.
Will post more as I get more information.
