improved for all ethnic groups for the last

5 years with only Asians showing a drop

ACT Performance: Key Results

As with the SAT and WASL, KSD graduates:

Math: outperform both state and national

peers;

Reading: outperform their national but nottheir state peers.

As in the past, about 200 KSD seniors participate

in the ACT compared to about 850 whoparticipate in the SAT. The small group size limits

meaningful analysis of subgroup scores.

Recommendations Provide the opportunity for all 9th grade students to take

the PSAT

Increase the numbers of students in underrepresented

populations taking AP and IB courses by increasing

participation in elementary hi-cap programs, middle school

and high school honors, and blended honors courses

Increase rigorous math opportunities for students that

reflect the current direction of our math program

Provide increased exposure to college and careeropportunities through field trips and research during the

school day, e.g. Advisory

Assure parents and students that we have high

expectations for each and every student
