Subgroup Achievement and Gap Trends: North Dakota, 2010
Center on Education Policy
This paper profiles the student subgroup achievement and gap trends in North Dakota for 2010. In grade 8 reading and math (the only grade in which subgroup trends were analyzed by achievement level), North Dakota showed across-the-board gains at the basic-and-above, proficient-and-above, and advanced levels for the state's major racial/ethnic subgroups and low-income students. Achievement gaps generally narrowed at grades 4, 8, and 11, although average (mean) scores revealed exceptions to this pattern. Comparable data were available for 2005-2009 at all three grades analyzed. (Contains 9 tables.) [For the main report, "State Test Score Trends through 2008-09, Part 2: Slow and Uneven Progress in Narrowing Gaps", see ED513914.]
