Decatur High Sees Slight Decline in SAT Scores

August 26, 2008 | 12:57 pm

…down 19 points vs. 2007, but its scores are still up vs. 2006.

Also, Decatur’s scores are still much better than those of DeKalb (1338), the state of Georgia (1466) and the national (1511) average.

Here’s the data from the past three years.

2008: Total: 1555 – Verbal: 530, Math: 513, Writing: 512

2007: Total: 1574 – Verbal: 537, Math: 527, Writing: 510

2006: Total: 1534 – Verbal: 511, Math: 521, Writing: 502

Thanks to the Georgia Dept. of Education for making this data so freakin’ hard to find online.
