O.C. Report Card -- Grade 7

In California, 4.6 million public school students in grades two through 11 took the Stanford 9 standardized tests this spring--for the fifth year in a row. All of them were tested in reading, math and language skills such as grammar and punctuation. Students through eighth grade also took a spelling test, and students in higher grades took exams in science and history/social science.

Students also took tests tied to the state’s tougher standards in the same subjects, such as English and language arts. Readers who want to know how a school in Los Angeles County is doing can use this cross-section of scores as a gauge. But bear in mind that these are results for selected grades only, not the entire school. Scores can vary from grade to grade--and from classroom to classroom--even at the same school.

Results for all grades, schools and districts are available on the Internet at https://www.cde.ca.gov.
