Scores23

About 31 percent of Gemini Junior High School students passed annual math assessments in 2018 and 69 percent of students failed, according to a North Cook News 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 Gemini Junior High School math scores, about 28 percent met expectations and 3 percent 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 32 percent approached expectations, while 22 percent partially met expectations and 15 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 Gemini Junior High School, which enrolled 723 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.
