| Trustees study ways to improve test
scores |
| By Cheryl Canning |
| Enterprise-Bulletin Special (Fri,
January 19, 2000) |
| Local school trustees are going back to basics in
hopes of improving Grade 3 and 6 test results. |
| Trustees with the Simcoe County District School Board
will work with a curriculum advisor in hopes of boosting test
scores. |
| Last spring, province wide results
showed the majority of the board's Grade 3 and 6 students were
below, or only approaching, the provincial standard when it came to
reading, writing and mathematics. |
| Jeannie Wilson, a curriculum assistant, has been
retained to work with trustees to help them determine what changes
are needed in order for students to achieve better literacy scores. |
| "The ministry (of education and training) says
it takes five to seven years for a new curriculum to be
implemented," said Wilson, told member of the board's student
services committee Wednesday night. |
