Statewide test results: 86 percent of Montessori students failed math

Grade school 02

About 14 percent of Montessori Elementary School students passed annual math assessments in 2017 and 86 percent of students failed, according to a Rockford Sun 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 Montessori Elementary School math scores, about 14 percent met expectations and none 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 26 percent approached expectations, while 33 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.

Test results at Montessori Elementary School, which enrolled 536 students in 2017, 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.
