City Schools’ Test Score Rise is Slow but Sure

For the second year in a row, San Francisco schools have slightly closed the gap in state standardized testing scores between black and Hispanic students and their peers.

As the students in San Francisco Unified School District filed back into class Monday, the state released the scores that schoolchildren across California received on the standardized tests they took in the spring.

The exams are intended as a barometer of progress for schools, districts and the state as a whole. Schools that do not show progress in their test scores can face penalties or closure.
