Most Idaho school hitting goals

About two-thirds of the public schools in Idaho are hitting adequate yearly progress goals under the Federal No Child Left Behind Act, the state’s Education Department reported Monday.

The department released scores from the Idaho Standards Achievement Tests that show about 62 percent of state schools reached progress goals during the 2009-2010 school year. Last year, 66 percent of schools hit the benchmark, but the standards became more difficult to reach this year. Full story. Alison Boggs, SR
