THE MORE YOU KNOW💫
Below are two scatter plots of all 1300 Iowa public schools comparing Iowa Assessment Scores (y-axis) against Free and Reduced Lunch Rates (x-axis).
The first is reading; the second is math.
Schools with 15% F/R rates average 85% proficiency.
Schools with 85% F/R rates average 50% proficiency.
Ironically, schools are judged on test scores without factoring poverty rates.
No wonder nearly every Iowa school “in need of assistance" resides in a high poverty district.
