It’s elementary, Pacific
Last week Easy Reader reported that Robinson Elementary School’s 939 score on the state-administered API tests was the highest score in the city. Several parents of the hard working Pacific School students wish it to be known that their school’s score was 941. Easy Reader apologizes for the error. Though, assuming a margin of error of plus or minus 5 percent, it appears we should have reported that the schools tied for the top honor.
