- Description/Excerpt: Dan Hardy, Alletta Emeno and Dylan Purcell of the Philadelphia Inquirer used state education data to show that "high schools led the way in state reading and math tests in the Philadelphia region and in Pennsylvania, with 11th graders showing strong gains." Even so, just more than half of all 11th graders scored at grade level in math, with nearly two-thirds gaining that mark in reading.
