Our school’s performances on State Tests were very low before implementing our School Improvement Plan at the end of the 1999 school year. After the implementation of our School Improvement Plan, we have recorded a steady improvement in state test scores over the last three years.

1999 30% 46% 57% 56%

2000 28% 49% 69% 54% 60%

In 1999 when we did the last Asset Survey, our students had an average of 19.1. We will survey again in November 2001. As part of the measurement of school climate, we have been tracking dropout rate and attendance rates.

In 1997-98 we had a 16.9% dorp out rate at Scio High School. For the 1999-2000 our dropout rate was 2.5%. 2.5% was the lowest recorded rate in the Linn/Benton/Lincoln Counties. We estimate the dropout rate for the 2000-2001 school year will be 2%.

In the 1998-1999 school year our attendance rate was 91.1%. For the 1999-2000 school year it was 92.8% .
