FREEII FUND RAISING GUIDE Grtxea: Rm moray qkictty ?id ?uly< Cal 1-800?M750 Ext 30 tor your ?* ctttog. There is no one who is more disappoTntet^ith the SAT results recently announced than I am. It's impossible to be pleased when we're informed that our system showed a drop of 9 points over last year's scores. We feel that there are legitimate reasons for the drop but that doesn't lessen that disappointment. ?There were, as there alway s are, some bright spots. Two high schoolsi for example, showed substantial increases- 38 points at St. Pauls and 56 points at 5 Red Springs. Unfortunately, the other four high schools showed decreases ranging from 3 points to 69 points. Another high point is that three schools Fairmont. Red Springs and St. Pauls- showed increases in the Math portion of the test. Those Math increases, along w ith drops in the verbal portion of the test just weren't enough to allow us to have an increase in the overall results. What. then, do we do? Well, we had already put into motion certain efforts which will pay dividends in the future. They have already resulted in increases in elementary and middle school reading and math. When these students reach high school, such improvement is bound to help them to score substantially better in tests like the SAT or ACT. Our new initiative entitled "Every' Teacher is a Teacher of Reading" emphasizes reading comprehension, test taking skills, and vocabulary development in content areas. It is bound to have a positive effect when students get to the point of taking the SAT. Our SAT preparation classes, if taken by students planning to take the test, can help those students do better. Additionally, the employment of a UNC-P professor to conduct SAT workshops for students and for teachers is also designed to help students to be better prepared to take the SAT. Something that we've talked about in the past is worth mentioning again. That is that students who plan on taking the SAT should have taken certain courses like Algebra I and Geometry. If they have not taken those courses, they may have a problem with the Math portion. It would also be a good idea if they took the Pre-SAT which would give them an indication of where they need help when they get to the real one. It's also true that, if a student isn't planning on going to college, it really isn't necessary to take the SAT since the test is only one predictor of how well a student might perform there. As I said earlier, we're not satisfied with the results recently announced. We do feel, however, that we're on the right track to see improvements on future tests. In the meantime, we encourage those young people who plan on attending college and, therefore, should have SAT or ACT results that will help them to get into the college of their choice, to take the proper courses and take the workshops and the Pre-SAT so that they're adequately prepared to receive good results. Study and preparation are the keys. 3DER PRESSING "EASY" II Moking your own cider and other juices is easy and fun. The whole family will i want a turn at the grinding wheel.
