Jones, Molly M.; Mandeville, Garrett K.

Remedial and Special Education (RASE), v11 n2 p56-62 Mar-Apr 1990

Basic Skills Assessment Program reading scores for all South Carolina students in grades 1-3 and 6 were analyzed. Failure to meet state standards was higher among younger, male, Black, and lunch-subsidized students. Risk of failure was still higher for younger students after controls for race, gender and lunch-payment status. (Author/PB)
