Elm 02

Another 17 percent approached expectations, 35 percent partially met expectations and 43 percent did not meet expectations. Students who scored in these categories are not ready for the next level of schooling, according to the test.

Test results at Mcintosh Elementary, which enrolled 361 students in 2017, surpassed state averages.

Statewide, 34 percent of students passed the test and 66 percent failed.

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