PSSA Test Scores Announced

When initial reports came out this week, I didn't see test scores with them, but this morning, the Morning Call had printed them.

Traditionally, scores have gone down as the grade level goes up with HS (11th grade) having the lowest scores and biggest drop-off. This trend has continued.
