Smarter Balanced Test ScoresSMARTER BALANCED MATH SCORES SHOW IMPROVEMENT AMONG THIRD GRADERS:

EdSource reporter Carolyn Jones writes about the relatively high math scores third graders scored on statewide assessments, which may be proof that Common Core

is having a positive effect on math education.

In Moreno Valley Unified, we did also experience growth in 3rd grade Math.We went from 24% Met and Exceeded in 2016 to 31.62 % in 2017.

This was a growth of almost 8% (7.62%).

3rd Grade ELA grew as well. 25% in 2016 to 27.55% in 2017, a growth of 2.5%.
