Statewide test results: 93 percent of Cornell students failed math

Scores20

About 7 percent of Cornell Elementary School students passed annual math assessments in 2018 and 93 percent of students failed, according to a McLean County Times 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 Cornell Elementary School math scores, about 7 percent met expectations and none 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 43 percent approached expectations, while 24 percent partially met expectations and 19 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 Cornell Elementary School, which enrolled 108 students in 2018, surpassed state averages.

Statewide, 31 percent of students passed the test and 69 percent failed.

Of students statewide who passed, only five percent 'exceeded' expectations.
