ATLANTA (AP) — It’s no surprise how Georgia students performed on state-mandated exams this year.

The state has been warning parents for weeks about failing scores on sixth- and seventh-grade social studies and eighth-grade math tests. The official Criterion-Referenced Competency Tests scores released by state education officials today confirm that students did not perform well in subjects where there was a harder curriculum and tougher test this year.

But scores did improve in many areas where students had taken two or more years of the new curriculum.

Results by school system and for individual schools have not yet been released
