Factors Associated with Grade 3 Reading Outcomes of Students in the Commonwealth of the Northern Mariana Islands Public School System. Study Snapshot. REL 2021-116
Regional Educational Laboratory Pacific
Few elementary students in the Commonwealth of the Northern Mariana Islands (CNMI) are scoring at grade level or higher on the ACT Aspire reading assessment. This study examined data on students who enrolled in grade 3 in a CNMI public school from 2014/15 to 2018/19 to understand their grade 3 reading performance. The study used administrative data from the CNMI Public School System, including students' gender, free or reduced-price lunch receipt (a proxy for family income), age at kindergarten entry, ethnicity, enrollment in Head Start, mobility, and performance on the ACT Aspire grade 3 reading assessment. This study snapshot presents key findings and implications from the full study. [For the full report, see ED614905. For the Study Brief, see ED614907. For the appendixes, see ED614910.]
