The William C. Hart Union School District has released preliminary results from the California Department of Education for the district’s performance on the California Smarter Balanced Assessments in English and Math.

The results of the California Science Test were also released.

The test results reflect the academic performance of students in California during the challenging period of the pandemic. As in the district, state and nationally, student assessment scores declined in several areas. Despite falling during this period of COVID disruption, Hart County continues to outperform both Los Angeles County and the state of California.

“The pandemic has presented countless challenges for Hart County students, staff and families,” Hart County Superintendent Kuhlman said. “Despite the dedicated work of members of our community, the results of student evaluations showed some decline compared to previous “normal” school years. Although we are disappointed by these results, we believe that this is a temporary trend that can be reversed through intervention strategies. However, we will use these results along with other measures to guide our learning and assess our progress. We’re proud of the growth we’ve achieved despite many setbacks and lost learning time. We will implement elements of our new Strategic Plan to help accelerate student learning to ensure that every student graduates ready for opportunity.”
