Re: Percent passing for Alg2/Trig

Beaver River had 88% passing and 38% mastery. Down significantly from last
year (especially the mastery) but none of my failures were surprises. We
only had four and I recommended that two of the four not take the test as
they could not get credit for the course due to excessive absences.
