Gloucester City School Board President Louisa Llewellyn told the NEWS she was thrilled by the improving scores posted by Gloucester City High 11th graders in 2007-08.
She stopped by the office the day after last week’s Board of Education (BOE) meeting, pointing out that the students scored better in both Mathematics and Language Arts.
Some 78.4 percent of last year’s 11th graders were either advanced or proficient in Math, compared to 67.8 percent in 2006-07, and 52.8 percent in 2002-03.
\”It is a remarkable turnaround,\” said Llewellyn, a former teacher in the school district, who said she was very proud of the students, teachers and staff at the High School.
In Language Arts, 86.2 percent of the students were either advanced or proficient, compared to 77.9 percent in 2006-07, and 69.5 percent in 2002-03.
