Reading and Language Arts

2022-2023

We are committed to ensuring that every public school student is reading on or above grade level (Goals 1, 2, & 4). This section includes information on student academic achievement in English Language Arts (ELA) and Literature on the PSSA and Keystone exams, as well as student growth on these exams (Average Growth Index (AGI)).

Due to COVID-19-related school closures, assessment cancellations, and modified testing schedules/requirements, assessment performance and growth data are not available/displayed for 2019-20 and 2020-21, and growth data is not displayed for 2021-2022 or 2022-23.
