Subgroup Achievement and Gap Trends: Connecticut
Center on Education Policy
In grade 8 (the only grade in which subgroup trends were analyzed by achievement level), Connecticut students showed gains across the board in math--at the basic, proficient, and advanced levels for racial/ethnic subgroups, low income students, and boys and girls. In reading, there were gains at the basic and proficient levels, but a slight decline at the advanced level for all students, and each subgroup as well. Achievement gaps between racial/ethnic subgroups, between low income and non-low income students, and between boys and girls (in reading) narrowed almost across the board. Comparable data were available from 2006 through 2009 for grades 4 and 8 and from 2007 through 2009 for grade 10. (Contains 9 tables.)
