Shutterstock 246297994

About 53 percent of St. Libory Elementary School students passed annual math assessments in 2017 and nearly a half of students failed, according to a Metro East 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 St. Libory Elementary School math scores, about 51 percent met expectations and 2 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 40 percent approached expectations, while 8 percent partially met expectations and none 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 St. Libory Elementary School, which enrolled 87 students in 2017, surpassed state averages.

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

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