ACT scores

<p>This morning's paper has an article about how Minnesota, my state, has the "best ACT scores" in the U.S. - among the 26 states in which a majority of high school students took the exam.</p>

<p>The interesting part is that our acclaimed high score is 22.6. The overall average was 21.1.</p>

<p>It kind of puts things into perspective. With the right-skewed test scores reported on CC, it's good to have a reminder that our kids are doing quite well, even if they don't have a 34+ ACT composite score!</p>

<p>As I thought, Iowa and Wisconsin were .1 and .2 off the top this year, these states often trade first place honors. Good public education in the upper midwest.</p>
