students in elementary and middle
grades do fairly well on these tests
and on national standardized tests.
The dropoff comes in high school,
where until this year a student could
be finished with all but two of his
or her basic core class graduation
requirements by the end of the 10th
grade.
We need a stronger, tougher high

Of those, 6,254 were bucks. This

I have repeatedly urged our
legislators and the Slate Board of
Education to increase Oklahoma’s
high school graduation requirement
— what has been called the 4 by 4
curriculum.
Now, two separate sets of test
results present strong evidence that
our high school students need to
study and learn more to better
prepare them for college and life.
First, we recently learned that the
average ACT score for the 70
percent of our high school seniors
who take this college entrance exam
declined from 20.6 to 20.5 in 1998.
Our ACT average has been about
a half-point below the national
average for several years. We’re still
stuck there, in spite of record
education spending and other
measures.
