Scores3

None of Lovejoy Middle School students passed annual math assessments in 2018 and all 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 Lovejoy Middle School math scores, no student 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 11 percent approached expectations, while 33 percent partially met expectations and 56 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 Lovejoy Middle School, which enrolled 23 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.
