			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Overall students in San Diego made great strides in improving math and english skills. According to the results of the 09&#8242; standardized testing and reporting program done by the stae showed that over 50% of San Diego students between the second grade and grade 11 scored advanced or proficient in english. This was a 47% increase from the year before.<br />
<strong><br />
</strong></p>
<p>For math results, it was very similar. From grades two to seven the percentage rate of students who scored high was up from a low 41% last year to a higher 45% this year. This is a great gain and students in San Diego should be proud of themselves. The hard work involved in the extra study time put in has definitely paid off.<br />
<strong><br />
</strong></p>
<p>The different school districts use these test results to see what schools are meeting the minimum requirements set in place by the federal No Child Left Behind law.<br />
<strong><br />
</strong></p>
<p>Not only in San Diego did score results increase. The state as a whole increased in both math and english. Once again, all students are to be commended and should give themselves a big pat on the back for a job well done.</p>
