[quote=Anonymous]Not sure if this has anything to do with the drastic drop in 8th Grade Math, but there was a great push last year to have kids take Algebra. Normally, there would be a bigger pool of test takers for 8th grade (ranging from those that are brilliant at math to those who struggle). The kids who are in the upper half as far as math skills were in Algebra - their scores would not have been in 8th grade math and not averaged in with the rest of the 8th graders. I thought the scores were disappointing, but hopefully we can learn from this and turn it around.[/quote]
