Improvement in Proficiency Standards

Date:

Every student graduating from Henry Hudson Regional School this year met the proficiency standards for graduation, Superintendent Dr. Tara Beams reported to the Board of Education at its meeting this week.

The figure represents a 10.4 per cent improvement compared to the previous year, and a 23.4 per cent growth from the previous time the students took a state assessment in grade 9.

Beams also reported excellent growth results in the New Jersey GPA showing 97.4 per cent of the 11th grade students met the requirements for high school in ELA, English Language Arts.

The superintendent also reported that 73.7% of the students met the proficiency/graduation requirements for mathematics, representing a 25.9% increase from the previous year and an 18% improvement from these same students’ scores on their last state assessments.

This can only be attributed to the hard work and dedication of our 11th-grade teachers, our ASI staff, and the leadership of HHRS,” Beams continued, “This is outstanding, and we look forward to continuing this success as we plan for the future. “

The full, detailed state assessment report will be shared with the public in October as required by the Department of Education.
