Marin School Scores Released

The Academic Performance Index (API) scores for Marin County have been released.  A score of 800 is the state’s standard for Academic Achievement.  The Marin IJ reports that 1/3 of Marin schools score at 800 or higher.  15 Marin schools scored 900+, down from 18 Marin schools last year.   According to the IJ,

Tiburon’s Bel Aire Elementary School received Marin’s highest score with 947. Other top-scoring schools included Kentfield’s Anthony G. Bacich Elementary, Larkspur’s Hall Middle School, Mill Valley’s Tamalpais Valley Elementary School and Tiburon’s Del Mar Middle School, whose API score jumped 19 points from 914 to 933.

Many of Marin’s schools could not be scored because they now teach kids in grades K-8, which are not comparable on the state’s scoring system.
