Kids Heart Challenge!
Dear Families,

AND you can help us win the Classroom Challenge! The teacher with the most students registered online will receive a Playground Pack! Register NOW! Our goal is best year ever 100% of OLLV students registered for the Challenge. Hit the goal for life-saving donations of $35,001 Mrs. Bello will Be Slimed!!
Thank you for your support!
Terra Nova/Progress Report
AREN'T SCORES AROUND 60 PRETTY BAD?
Percentiles are NOT percentages. A percentile score of 60 does not mean that the child got 6 right out of 10 – that would be a percentage.
Percentiles are rank order scores, indicating that, in a national group of 100 children in the same grade, this child is doing better than 59 of them.
By definition, the median (average middle score) percentile is 50. “Average” scores follow a bell - shaped curve, with most students falling between the 25th (low average) and 75th (high average) percentiles.
If a student scored 58th percentile in math, and his anticipated score is 55, he is achieving according to his ability (perhaps a bit higher than the average of his ability group), and is doing better than 57 out 100 of his peers across the country.
BOTTOM LINE...
We were pleased, but not surprised, to view our most recent Terra Nova Testing Scores. Despite the COVID and summer slide, our students out performed the nation in all subjects and lead the Diocese in performance. We are receiving the High School Placement Test results from Bishop Gorman with similar results. As soon as the last test is tabulated, we will share those results.
