The AJC has now posted CRCT scores for 2009 by individual school, though I’m having trouble coming up with any statewide benchmarks. Here are a couple snippets from the AJC article that reference statewide levels…

For instance, the pass rate among eighth graders taking the math test rose to 70 percent, up from 62 percent last year.

…Third-graders this year improved their math passage rate from 71 percent to 78 percent, and fifth-graders improved from 72 percent to 79 percent. For science, 80 percent of third-graders passed the test, compared to 75 percent last year. The fourth-grade passing rate rose from 74 percent to 78 percent.

Social studies remained a challenge, with 37 percent of eighth graders failing that test. Last year, 41 percent of eighth graders failed.

Among CSD schools, Oakhurst had by far the smallest percentage of 3rd graders that failed the math section (12.5%), while Winnona had the highest (23.2%). Oakhurst also had the smallest percentage of 3rd graders that failed the science section (10.7%), while Clairemont had the highest (17.3%).   20.9% of 8th graders failed the “challenging” social studies section, which is considerably better than the 37% statewide average mentioned above.

Here are links to each Decatur school, allowing you to avoid the AJC’s painful drop-down menu.

Also, I noticed that Decatur ranked 91st among Georgia High School Graduation Tests in 2009.  That data was released about a month ago.
