Worth Noting • All GP schools met the Michigan Adequate Yearly Progress Standard. • Test results remain high with inclusion of special education students. • Even with more students taking AP, ACT, and SAT, scores remain stable or improved. (Usually, the more students who take a test, the lower the average score.)
Following Through • Comparing test scores from previous years, where possible. • Analyzing the real meaning of the numbers. • Looking for patterns. • Studying gender discrepancies. • Identifying emerging problems.
