Education Vital Signs: A Year-End Roundup of Vital School Statistics.

American School Board Journal, v179 n12 p31-45 Dec 1992

Although 1992 Scholastic Aptitude Test scores have risen slightly, scores are closely linked to family income and education. ACT (American College Testing Program) scores are tied more to academic preparation. Reading performance has improved, but math performance lags behind other nations. Educator demographics, salary information, and regional enrollment and expenditure figures are also provided. (MLH)
