A graph shows student performance on standardized math and reading tests in Rugby elementary students.
Students in Rugby Public Schools have weathered the current COVID crisis surprisingly well, according to testing data reviewed by the Rugby Public School Board at its regular meeting March 9.
The board met at the Rugby High School library, where members reviewed graphs showing MAP test data showing scores in math and reading proficiencies among first through sixth graders in the district.
Data from the pandemic’s beginning in the 2019-2020 school year showed a decline in math scores among third, fifth and sixth graders. When school reopened on a modified schedule for 2020-2021, fourth graders still showed a slight decline in math scores, while first graders scored 18 points below the target 50 percent proficiency level at 32 percent.
