MMR Scores

This past week, we received some great news from the Minnesota Department of Education, as it relates to last spring's MCA test scores. The MMR (Multiple Measurement Rating system) scores were released to school districts across the state of Minnesota. The MMR is a system that takes into account a) student proficiency on the Math and Reading MCA tests, b) student growth in these tested areas from one year to the next, and c) closing the achievement gap on the Reading and Math MCAs for sub-groups in special education, free and reduced lunch, race, and English language learners.

The formula that computes these measures are fairly complex, but I'm happy to report that our test scores grew substantially at Falcon Ridge from 2012 to 2013 (49% to 74%). Attached is some trend data that tracks the previous four years of MMR data. Our test scores reinforce the belief that we have a great deal to be proud of here at Falcon Ridge!
