The strongest grade-level result is seventh-grade ELA: 58% met or exceeded the standard, 7 percentage points above the state’s 51%. Sixth-grade ELA was close to the state, at 47% versus 48%. Math was below the state in every reported grade, with the largest gap in third grade—19% versus 47%, or 28 points below—and the smallest in seventh grade, 32% versus 38%, or 6 points below. Since this is the only school listed, there is no local school-to-school comparison or basis for naming area-wide top and bottom schools.
