  2. What Do We Know About Student Achievement?

  3. 12th Grade Achievement In Math and Science is Up Somewhat

  5. In Reading, 12th Grade Achievement is Headed Downward

  6. HIGH SCHOOL ACHIEVEMENT: READING AND WRITING

  7. What about different groups of students?During seventies and eighties, much progress.
