About 10 percent of Columbus West Elementary School students passed annual math assessments in 2017 and 90 percent of students failed, according to a West Cook News analysis of the latest Illinois schools report card.

The Partnership for Assessment of Readiness for College and Careers, or PARCC, is administered to third- through eighth-graders in Illinois, testing them in reading and math based on Common Core standards.

According to Columbus West Elementary School math scores, about 10 percent met expectations and none exceeded them. Students whose results are in either category are considered to be most ready to move on to the next level and are most prepared for college or work.

Another 27 percent approached expectations, while 37 percent partially met expectations and 27 percent did not meet them. Students who scored in these categories are not ready for the next level of schooling, according to the test.

Test results at Columbus West Elementary School, which enrolled 655 students in 2017, fell below state averages.

Statewide, 31 percent of students passed the test and 69 percent failed.

Of students statewide who passed, only five percent 'exceeded' expectations.
