Did you know that LTISD Middle School Science test scores deteriorated between 2006 and 2007?

In the interest of perpetual metrics, the district tested middle school students in 2006 and 2007 in anticipation of the upcoming TAKS science test requirements ^TPIA.

Well, the scores deteriorated, but what can you expect from an “academically acceptable” school district?

Here are the highlights of from the recently obtained document showing the test scores ^TPIA:

School	2007 Met Standard	2006 Met Standard	2007 to 2006 Met Standard
Hudson Bend	71%	92%	-21%
Lake Travis	83%	93%	-10%

School	2007 Benchmark Commended	2006 TAKS Commended	2007 to 2006 Commended
Hudson Bend	7%	21%	-14%
Lake Travis	21%	31%	-10%

I doubt that this “regression” was factored into Rocky’s pay raise.
