Analysis of ELA Data Please indicate the % of students performing below grade level (i.e. levels 1
& 2). Please describe what Levels 1 & 2 represents (i.e. 1 below standards, 2 approaching
standards). Compare the last 2 years to see if there is improvement:
In reviewing the ELA Data for the years 2013 and 2014 for P.S. 86 The Kingsbridge Heights School the
percent (%) of 5th Grade students in General education setting performing below grade level was 37.4%

basic standards or approaching was 41.9% for the year 2013 and 36.9% for the year 2014. In the year
2013 the percent of the student who performed at level 3 which signifies these students met proficiency
standard was 16.7% and in the year 2014 the percentage of students at this level was 18.0%. Lastly, for
the year 2013 the percentage of student who performed at a level 4 which means exceeds proficient
standards was 4.1% and in 2014 the percentage of students at this level was 6.0%
In comparing the data for the last two years one can observed how there was an increase in the percentage
of student performing at level 3 and level 4 for the year 2013 to 2014. For instance, in one year there was
a 1.3% increase in the percentage of students who scored level a three; 16.7% of student at level 3 in the
