Pittsford, Victor and Webster are shown for comparison purposes to similar socio-economic suburban districts.
So…”How we doin?” Pittsford looks “ahead” by a bit. But Victor and Webster are close 2nds.
Interesting that, in general, the students in grades 3-5 are doing better than grades 6-8 with a significant fall-off in grade 8.
Per the D&C: “Test scores are never the whole story in a school district. But they shine a certain telling light.”
