Delaware 2023 Proficiency Ratings
Recent assessments have revealed that a significant percentage of students in Delaware schools are not meeting the expected benchmarks in English and math.
This issue is not limited to a particular grade level or demographic; it’s a systemic challenge that requires comprehensive examination. Despite the dedicated efforts of educators and administrators, the numbers tell a story of a persistent gap that demands attention. It’s challenging to demand attention without transparency. This information needs to be available to the public in the simplest form possible. This is the first step.
Below you will find English Language Arts Proficiency Rates (ELAProf), Math Proficiency Rates (MathProf) and the enrollment totals for all Delaware public schools. Proficiency rates refer to the percentage of students that can read or do math on grade level at each school.
