Test Results for Charter Schools

Test results published in The Times on Tuesday failed to include charter schools. The chart below provides scores for those schools as measured by the percentage of students at or above the 50th percentile, which is the national average. The change in scores is the percentage of students who moved up or down in the rankings since 1998. The last two columns show the average percentage of language arts questions answered correctly and the change from 1999’s average percentage. These items are designed to assess knowledge of California’s content standards.
