These students did not meet the required standards of the Math portion of the MCAS, compared to the 42% who did.

The number of Beverly Public Schools District students who failed their Math assessments fell by 9.2% from the previous school year.

Beverly Public Schools District roughly covers schools within Essex County and has a main office in Beverly.

In the 2021-22 school year, 399,938 students took the Math test in Massachusetts with 58% students failing, 7.6% less than the year before.

According to the Massachusetts Department of Elementary and Secondary Education's 2022 Massachusetts Comprehensive Assessment System (MCAS), the average scale score for grade 10 English Language Arts was 503, which met the expectation level, while the average scale score for grade 10 Science was 499, which only partially met the expectation level.

The results of the spring 2022 MCAS examinations were mixed, with declines in ELA scores and gains in Math and Science scores since 2021. Overall results indicate a need for improvement as compared to pre-pandemic levels.
