The national norm I.Q. level of fourth graders was listed as 102 plus and Rappahannock students were ranked at 99.6.
“The deficiency in math that appears at the fourth grade level tends to disappear at the sixth,” noted Fleetwood. “The problem is not with the average and above average students,” he maintained, but with the children of below average abilities who tend to score even lower than their ability. Attempts to correct the situation are being made, said Fleetwood, by putting special emphasis on math in the Title classes in the lower grades. He attributed the removal of the math deficiency by sixth grade in part to the supplemental skills development program.
