With another school year just around the corner in New York, teachers have some new test results to go over. The math and English scores for grades 3 through 8 in the exams tied to the Common Core show slight improvement, but only about a third of the students are considered proficient. The Executive Director of the New York State School Boards Association, Tim Kremer, says the test results show only modest gains, but he says things are moving in the right direction.
