Under the leadership of Superintendent Denise Juneau, the math skills of Montana students continue to exceed the national average and have slowly, surely improved over the past 10 years, according to national experts. Math scores increased sharply among some of the state's fourth and eighth-grade students in the last two years.
"It's great to see the gains so many of our students are making in math," said Superintendent Denise Juneau. "The hard work and innovation happening in Montana's classrooms is paying off as we can see with these top-notch results. I am proud of all of our students and teachers."
Montana eighth graders scored better than students in all but two other states (MN and MA) and Montana fourth graders scored better than students in all but four other states (MN, VT, NH, and MA). Read more in the Billings Gazette.
