Fewer
Franklin County third graders are reading at or above grade level
this year than last.
Florida
released the results of The
3rd
grade Florida Standards Assessment in English Language Arts last
week.
County-wide,
44 percent of local third graders are reading at grade level or above
– that's down from 52 percent last year.
If
you break the scores down by school – 61 percent of third graders
at the Apalachicola Bay Charter School were reading at or above grade
level, while 35 percent of third graders at the Franklin County
School were where they need to be in reading.
The
statewide average was 57 percent.
In
Gulf County, 56 percent of Port St. Joe elementary school 3rd
graders were reading at grade level while only 33 percent of 3rd
graders at Wewahitchka Elementary School scored a three or above on
the assessment.
In
Wakulla County the top scoring school was Riversink Elementary where
71 percent of 3rd
graders were reading at or above grade level.
The
Florida Standards Assessment divides reading and writing scores into
three classes.
Students
scoring at level 1 will likely have to repeat third grade; students
who score at Level 2, will graduate to fourth grade but still need
help; and those that score at Level 3 or higher are considered on
track.
