2017-2018 School Year

PARCC ELA Grades 3-8

Grade 3 ELA

• Higher percentage of students who require additional services
• Mean scale score for Readington is 9 points higher than the state
• Students are supported with intervention, in-class support and pull-out ELA programs as needed
• The district revised the ELA curriculum which will be implemented in the 2018-19 school year and

continues to purchase resources to support all learners

Grade 4 ELA

• This grade level is substantially smaller than others in the district and individual student scores will impact the overall

achievement of the grade level more dramatically

• Historically this grade level has met expectations consistently
• Mean scale score for Readington is 10 points higher than the state
• The district will continue to monitor the progress of this cohort of students and support their instruction as needed in the

areas indicated by our analysis of in-district assessments and standardized test scores

Grade 5 ELA

• This grade level has shown substantial growth this year
• The increase in scores can be attributed to the hard work and dedication of our teaching staff and

students

• The implementation of new teaching techniques and a curricular revision took place during the 2017-18

school year

Grade 6 ELA

• 8% higher passing rate than the state
• 23% higher passing rate than the cross-state population
• Higher percentage of students who require additional services
• Students are supported with intervention, in-class support and pull-out ELA programs as needed
• A 6th grade honors program will launch in the 2018-19 school year to meet the needs of students who

would benefit from an accelerated pace and a more in-depth exploration of content

Grade 7 ELA

• This grade level has shown substantial growth this year
• The increase in scores can be attributed to the teachers’ commitment to providing challenging, high

quality instruction and the dedication of our students

• This group of students participated in the launch of the 7th grade honors program as well as a variety of

scheduling changes that increased the amount of instructional time available

Grade 8 ELA

• This grade level has consistently performed well over time
• The staff continuously evaluates their teaching practices and adjusts them to meet the ever changing

needs of their students

• The teachers of this grade level worked as a team within their content area and in cross-curricular

groups to promote the generalization of literacy skills across a variety of academic settings

and individual student scores will impact the overall achievement

• f the grade level more dramatically

Grade 5 Math

• 7% increase in students passing for 2017
• 21% more students passing than the state
• Mean scale score 14 points higher than the state
• Percent passing and scale sore holding steady over

time indicates the quality of the curriculum and its implementation

Grade 6 Math

• 16% higher passing rate than the state
• Mean scale score is 14 points higher than the state
• Percent passing and scale sore holding steady over

time indicates the quality of the curriculum and its implementation

assessment and the 19% of the honors students who took the Algebra II assessment

• When looking at eighth grade as a whole 59% of the students met or exceeded expectations
• Mean scale score is 5 points higher than the state
• Students in grade level math are supported with Freckle, intervention, in-class support and

pull out math programs

Algebra I

• Our Algebra I scores are a combination of seventh and eighth graders
• 47% higher passing rate than the state
