“We wanted to see how
our district, which consistently ranks at or near the top in national
and state-wide studies, measures up with the international community.
We want our students to be competitive in the global marketplace,
TIMSS 99 provides us with a measurement to determine if we are successful
in achieving that goal.”
This study also allows us to evaluate other countries’
math and science programs, compare them to our own and learn from
them. We are constantly looking for ways to continually improve the
education our students receive.”
