Chicago City Wire

About 3 percent of Leland Elementary School students passed annual math assessments in 2018 and nearly all 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 Leland Elementary School math scores, about 3 percent met expectations and 0.4 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 10 percent approached expectations, while 33 percent partially met expectations and 54 percent did not meet them. Students who scored in these categories are not ready for the next level of schooling, according to the test.

Test results at Leland Elementary School, which enrolled 409 students in 2018, fell below state averages.

Statewide, 31 percent of students passed the test and 69 percent failed.

Of students statewide who passed, only five percent 'exceeded' expectations.
