Because Garrison has only one listed school, there is no top or bottom school to compare; the clearest differences are among its latest grade-level results. Grade 6 reading stands out positively: 64% were proficient, 10 points above the state’s 54%. Grade 5 writing is the weakest relative result: 25% were proficient, 10 points below the state’s 35% and 14 points below the Lewis County district’s 39%. Mathematics was close to the state average, at 42% versus 43%, and above the district’s 33%.
Results changed unevenly from the prior year, with grade 5 writing falling most sharply, from 66% to 25%, a 41-point drop. Reading also weakened overall: its average went from 58% to 49%, although grade 6 remained a strong exception; scores fell in three of four grades.
