Practice Test Scores……
A score of 70% is a good indicator that a
student is ready to pass the graduation
tests.
Students scoring below 50% on practice
tests should consider afternoon tutoring.
Students scoring between 50% and 70%
should consider several Saturday
reviews.
Transcript Analysis
Junior transcripts were reviewed to verify that students
were on the correct path for success on the graduation
tests.
Areas of concern:
1. If a student has no credits in Math I or Math II, they will need to
sign up for tutoring.
2. If a student has low EOCT scores in Math I and/or Math II, they
should sign up for math tutoring.
3. If a student has low EOCT scores in English classes, tutoring is
needed.
4. Students need exposure to both biology and physical science in
order to be successful on exam.

Lesson #7 (Data Analysis)
Question: How do you determine central tendency?
The term "measures of central tendency" is a fancy name for mean, median and mode.
Mean:Average. The sum of a set of data divided by the number of data. Do not round your
answer unless directed to do so.
Median:The middle value or the mean of the middle two values, when the data is arranged in
numerical order.
Mode:The value (number) that appears the most. It is possible to have more than one mode,
and it is possible to have no mode. If there is no mode-write "no mode", do not write zero (0).
Range:The difference between the greatest and least pieces of data.
Examples
Find the mean, median, mode, and range for the following data:
5, 15, 10, 15, 5, 10, 10, 20, 25, 15
Listing the data out in order is the easiest way to find the median. The numbers 10 and 15
both fall in the middle. Average these two numbers to get the median.
10 + 15 = 12.5
