The final numbers, released by the Georgia Department of Education, show improvements for Georgia schools as a whole. Yet for metro Atlanta's Parklane Elementary, Atherton Elementary, and Glynn County's Burroughs-Molette Elementary, the new test results show all four school lagged behind the state.
For example, at Parklane, 75% of fifth-grade students did not meet the social studies standards, while 70% of Burroughs-Molette fifth graders did not meet the science standard. Atherton also struggled, with a majority of the school's fifth graders failing both science and social studies tests.
Deerwood Elementary in Atlanta has also been linked to CRCT tampering; however, that school performed well compared to the rest of the state in math, reading, social studies and science testing.
