Test expectations: How many McLeod County students failed to meet the Math MCA expectations in 2021-2022?

Test 14

51.4 percent of McLeod County students failed the Math portion of the Minnesota Comprehensive Assessment (MCA) test in the 2021-2022 school year, according to the Minnesota Department of Education.

These students did not meet the required standards of the Math portion of the MCA, compared to the 48.5 percent who did.

The number of McLeod County students who failed their Math assessments rose by 5.3 percent from the previous school year.

The MCA is given annually to Minnesota students to determine the academic readiness of students. Not every grade is tested each year.

Analysis from the Nation’s Report Card showed math and reading scores have fallen significantly in the last decade. Science scores have been steady in recent years.

A student's success or failure on the MCA does not impact their grades or their ability to graduate.
