The state of Wisconsin released 2014-15 testing data results recently. Every Choice student and public school student in grades 3-8 in Wisconsin took the Badger Exam. I wanted to share the results with you.St. John’s Lutheran School placed as the top school of all Milwaukee Parental Choice Program schools (75) in math and number four overall in English Language Arts. Not only did we place as the top private school in the city of Milwaukee, our numbers exceeded the overall state average. The percentages represent students who are considered proficient or advanced in the subject area.St. John’s results: ELA – 53% Math – 62%MPCPELA – 27%Math – 16%MPSELA – 26%Math – 16%State Public School AverageELA – 51%Math – 44%Join with me in congratulating our students and our teachers for a job well done. Jesus remains the focus of our day at St. John’s, preparing children of our church and community for life and eternity through Jesus. As our theme at St. John’s for this year states, “Fix your eyes on Jesus,” pray we continue to keep Jesus as our priority and pray God would continue to bless us.David Rust
