AREAS OF STRENGTH


PGMS CRCT scores are in the mid to high 90’s
for all subject areas.
Our scores are higher than that of the state and
county in math.
AREAS FOR IMPROVEMENT
Percentage of students exceeding the math part
of the CRCT has gone down from last year.
 The numbers and operations strand has been the
weakest area consistently.
 Our demographics are starting to change and
teachers need to meet the needs of all of the
diverse learners in the classroom.
 What could you do in your classroom to help
improve the areas of weakness? Do you think
there is a correlation between switching from
GPS to Common Core and lower test scores?
Please take a moment and share with your peers.
