The Minnesota Department of Education has released science test
scores for Minnesota students in the area of science. 5th grade
and 8thgrade students were tested and the Crookston scores need
improvement. “The science test is only taken by 5th and 8th
graders and don’t count in the Average Yearly Progress (AYP),
but they will soon," said Crookston Highland School Principal
Travis Thorvilson, "We are very new in Minnesota and it is a
computerized test. It shows we have an area we need to work on,
as we are riding a high on the reading and math scores. The
science scores are not that way, which is 10 to 12 percent below
the state average. Our staff in Crookston wants to be better
than the state scores and we are already making a plan for the
coming year and the years ahead. We plan on doing the same thing
we did for reading and math.”
