CAP Test Scores for Montebello School District

Share via

The figures for the Montebello Unified School District were omitted from the May 18 edition of the San Gabriel Valley section. The following is information released last week by the state Department of Education comparing the performance of schools on the California Assessment Program tests for grades 3, 6, and 8.

HOW TO READ THE SCORES

The information on high- and low-performing schools is based on average math and reading scores on the 1987-88 California Assessment Program test taken by 3rd- and 6th-graders, and the average of scores in five CAP subject areas taken by 8th-graders in the state. The listings below show how individual schools performed on the CAP tests compared to schools of similar background (based on such indicators as parents’ education and income level, the number of families receiving welfare assistance and the number of limited-English-speaking students).

* The first column shows the grade level for the school.

* Next is the performance index. The highest ranking is 1. For 3rd and 6th grades, this means the grade met a statewide target set for that grade in 1983-84. For 8th grade, the target was set in 1985-86. A 2 applies only to 3rd and 6th grades and means they met a more modest growth target set in 1985-86. A 3A means no targets were met and the CAP score average was in the middle 50% of comparable schools. A 3B means no targets were met and the score was in the bottom 25%.

* The next column shows the difference between the 1983-84 CAP score and the 1987-88 score.

* Column 4 shows average 1987-88 combined CAP reading and math score for each grade level. CAP scores are scaled from about 100 to 400.

* Column 5 shows the grade’s percentile ranking among grades levels at similar schools.
