Commentary: STAAR scores addressedGetting your Trinity Audio player ready... The July 9 article by reporter Omar Zapata on the 2024 STAAR end-of-course results was no doubt accurate and contains a massive amount of detail.

We need to condense the results by using only the eighth-grade results since those indicate their readiness for high school. They, like ACT and SAT nationally recognized tests, test readiness for future education.1 day ago
