This Report is a great resource that our Board will be reviewing. I have a question re. “SAT Performance Relative to College & Career Readiness Benchmark” chart on pg 9. Beyond the combined score of 1068 on the two (math and R&W) SAT tests, as a readiness benchmark, are there are other indices from which correlations can be drawn for “readiness” for either college or career, especially for career as I hear less about that avenue? If so, can you please elaborate? Thanks so much for your time! Tobi W.
This is the benchmark calculated by the College Board from results on the SAT. There may very well be others but this is one that is easily available. Here’s the explanation from the College Board: Each assessment in the SAT Suite has an associated set of metrics called the College and Career Readiness Benchmarks. · The SAT Math benchmark is the section score associated with a 75% chance of earning at least a C in first-semester,credit-bearing, college-level courses in algebra, statistics, precalculus, or calculus. · The SAT Evidence-Based Reading and Writing (ERW)benchmark is associated with a 75% chance of earning… Read more »
For the data presented on pg. 20-21,
1. confirming that the 873 graduates for 2018 include the further break-out of the 3 sets of numbers presented, 143 (Christian colleges), 71 (top 50 natl univ), and 23 (top 25 liberal arts), which totals 237 — those currently enrolled in college/univ?
2. If the answer to no. 1 is Yes, do we have data/information on the balance of the 636 graduates – what they are doing post graduation?
3. Do you collect data on how many complete college/univ and get a bachelors degree?
This is the question school’s were asked that generated the college attendance data:
“In the past three years, which schools on the attached list have your graduates attended?”
(Check the box if any graduates have attended this school.)
There were other questions about the school’s total number of graduates as well as the number of graduates in the class of 2018.
At this time, we don’t have the data for the other questions you listed.
