Most recent test scores

Below are the the most recent standardized test scores achieved by Scotia-Glenville's elementary, middle school and high school students.

The reference to mean scale scores means that half of SG students scored above that figure and half scored below.

Scores in levels 3/4 mean that students meet the state standards. These figures include out of district student placements.

*July 2010
The State Education Department, in announcing the testing results from May 2010, also raised the "cut" scores between levels 1 and 2 and levels 2 and 3. That effectively means that more student scores would fall within levels 1 and 2, meaning that they are below the level now considered "proficient" by the state. As can be seen, mean scale scores on the exams did not decline dramatically.
