Orange Beach Leads State In Third-Grade Reading

 Orange Beach City Schools recently announced that its entire third-grade class earned a passing score on the Alabama Comprehensive Assessment Program Reading test. “Sufficiency and proficiency are two terms that can be easily misunderstood,” commented Orange Beach City Schools’ Superintendent Randy Wilkes. “Sufficiency is described as ‘grade level.’ Orange Beach City Schools leads the state in third-grade reading sufficiency. We have 100% of students reading on grade level. Proficiency relates to a higher functioning level, one that formerly was reflective of the potential to earn a B or better on college entrance courses. The goal of the district is to achieve 80% proficiency in every subject tested in every grade level. Third-graders have already debunked naysayers by achieving 85% proficiency in reading.” Orange Beach City Schools was the only district in Alabama to comprehensively pass the assessment.
