Texas schools that used STEMscopes Science for 5th grade were matched to non-STEMscopes schools that used other curricular resources. STEMscopes Science schools had higher rates of students who met or mastered grade-level expectations compared to non-STEMscopes schools on the Texas 2023 STAAR science test. Rate differences depended on whether analyses considered all students or sub-groups of students. Sub-group analyses show that STEMscopes Science is helping Hispanic/Latinx students meet or master grade-level expectations relative to their peers in non-STEMscopes schools. ### Grade 5. There was a significant 1.04-point increase in the percent of students who met STAAR grade expectations in STEMscopes Science (passing rate: 33.04%) versus non-STEMscopes Science schools (32.00%). There was a 0.91 significant, positive difference in the percent of students who ”mastered” grade level expectations in STEMscopes Science (rate: 14.26%) versus non-STEMscopes Science schools (13.35%). For both categories (Met and Mastered), there was a significant point increase in the percent of Hispanic/Latinx students in STEMscopes schools that met (28.44% versus 27.27%) and mastered (11.06% versus 10.32%) grade level expectations on the STAAR compared to their peers in non-STEMscopes schools. **Numbers are small, but represent ****at least 976 more students who Met, and 851 more students who Mastered grade level on the STAAR. This was the first year of the STAAR redesign.** [![READ FULL REPORT](https://no-cache.hubspot.com/cta/default/392662/interactive-165214957591.png) ](https://info.acceleratelearning.com/hs/cta/wi/redirect?encryptedPayload=AVxigLIfJok0TvxQSFr%2BdlpYR%2BXN%2F5aat%2FEgN5b9KsDKy7z2cZ2YGH9As7I8eINY%2B6M5OEH41pGNpwptfnjyE0xDi2K01udkLKiIjvaosqBQdfSBqk4P07WHpn%2BUuSvhNE1USoXE29CszEe87D%2B9pxF2VcqsAe%2BAlx8CN8mge99H9aWp%2BWx9NMayOmV3B%2BbLQpE7KFG2u7gVS2bglamVm3TQsFmc90jkvn7ljqVbWOrcNinUSIDGVDpyWFWNPgnnpl8rKL7L9WtqHK9koOvFuEpS5ulhXLao5n1rlniF&webInteractiveContentId=165214957591&portalId=392662&hsLang=en) ![](https://info.acceleratelearning.com/hs-fs/hubfs/STAAR%205th%20Grade%202023%20%20SS%20Science%20-png.png?width=720&height=424&name=STAAR%205th%20Grade%202023%20%20SS%20Science%20-png.png) ![Students Collaborating 250px](https://info.acceleratelearning.com/hubfs/Pictures%20with%20Students/Students%20Collaborating%20250px.jpg) ### Empower Your Students With Accelerate Learning Today Designed to make measurable impacts on student achievement, Accelerate Learning Inc. offers you a customized STEM solution for all your students.
