DATA OVERVIEW OF PINEY GROVE MIDDLE SCHOOL April 15, 2014 Presented at Math Collaboration Meeting By Carmen Linn

PURPOSE OF DATA OVERVIEW Analyze the past three years 7 th grade CRCT data in the core content areas at Piney Grove Middle School with an emphasis on math. Increase math achievement in specific strands.

DISCUSSION SLIDE Why did the number of exceeds students go down from last year to this year? How can we increase achievement on the CRCT to have more students in the exceeds category?

AREAS OF STRENGTH PGMS CRCT scores are in the mid to high 90’s for all subject areas. Our scores are higher than that of the state and county in math.

AREAS FOR IMPROVEMENT Percentage of students exceeding the math part of the CRCT has gone down from last year. The numbers and operations strand has been the weakest area consistently. Our demographics are starting to change and teachers need to meet the needs of all of the diverse learners in the classroom. What could you do in your classroom to help improve the areas of weakness? Do you think there is a correlation between switching from GPS to Common Core and lower test scores? Please take a moment and share with your peers.
