About 14 percent of Catalyst Charter-Maria Elementary School students passed annual math assessments in 2018 and 86 percent of students failed, according to a Chicago City Wire analysis of the latest Illinois schools report card.

The Partnership for Assessment of Readiness for College and Careers, or PARCC, is administered to third- through eighth-graders in Illinois, testing them in reading and math based on Common Core standards.

According to Catalyst Charter-Maria Elementary School math scores, about 14 percent met expectations and 0.3 percent exceeded them. Students whose results are in either category are considered to be most ready to move on to the next level and are most prepared for college or work.

Another 20 percent approached expectations, while 38 percent partially met expectations and 28 percent did not meet them. Students who scored in these categories are not ready for the next level of schooling, according to the test.
