      <P>
      <P>Hanover, Munster, and Whiting Schools led Lake County in ISTEP=20
      performance at the 10th grade level, where passing is a =
requirement for=20
      earning a high school diploma. </P>
      <P>The three schools passed more than 77 percent of sophomores in =
both the=20
      English and math sections. </P>
      <P>Statewide, the passing rate for 10th graders was just 57 =
percent. </P>
      <P>Superintendent Suellen Reed said as students get older, passing =
becomes=20
      more difficult because abstract thinking and analysis is required. =
</P>
      <P>Dirk Flick, principal at Whiting, said his school has a unique =
way of=20
      addressing deficient skills. </P>
      <P>Instead of relying on summer remediation like many schools, =
Whiting=20
      cushions a 30-minute study time during the day for students to =
brush up on=20
      skills they lack. </P>
      <P>The innovative program led to Flick receiving a past nomination =
for=20
      principal of the year.</P>
      <P>"We have created a unique situation that takes advantage of the =
fact=20
      that during the the day we have a captive audience. We can get 30 =
minutes=20
      a day all year in any subject. It's really successful," Flick =
said. </P>
      <P>"We're very pleased with our outcome. Our students did a =
fantastic job.=20
      The staff is really geared up." </P>
      <P>Flick said in the summer many students who need ISTEP =
remediation don't=20
      attend. </P>
      <P>Lake Ridge also had a problem with low attendance for its Jump =
Start=20
      ISTEP remediation program, which they recently ended. </P>
      <P>Lake Ridge School Corp. performed below state average at the =
ninth and=20
      10th grade level, passing just 37 and 31 percent of students,=20
      respectively. Gary was the lowest among high school =
performers.</P>
      <P>With Hanover achieving a 78 percent passing rate for =
sophomores,=20
      Principal Joe Fetty was pleased his students ranked number one=20
locally.</P>
      <P>"We usually do pretty well. We're pleased," Fetty said. </P>
      <P>At the middle school level, Munster Schools led Lake County=20
      performance, passing 77 percent of students at the eighth and=20
      seventh-grade levels.</P>
      <P>Statewide, roughly 60 percent of middle school students posted =
passing=20
      scores.</P>
      <P>At the elementary school level Banneker was tops in both Lake =
and=20
      Porter County, passing the highest number of sixth graders in =
English and=20
      math. </P>
      <P>They were also the region's top performer in fourth- and =
fifth-grade=20
      English. Banneker students did well in math also, landing among =
the top=20
      three regionwide.</P>
      <P>Hammond performed worst at the sixth-grade level, while East =
Chicago=20
      passed the least number of students at the third-grade level.</P>
      <P>Gary Superintendent Mary Steele-Agee expressed pleasure that =
the=20
      district showed signs of upturn -- except in the high schools =
where less=20
      than 20 percent of students passed in most cases. </P>
      <P>Steele attributed the progress to "more focused professional=20
      development."</P>
      <P>"We hope to have more schools improving. I think we have a lot =
of=20
      things in place and we're finally seeing the fruit of our labor," =
she=20
      said. </P>
      <P>Gary's next step is improving high schools. Lew Wallace and =
Roosevelt=20
      passed just 5 percent and 8 percent of 10th graders in both =
English and=20
      math. Wirt only passed 15 percent of 10th graders, and West Side =
only 20=20
      percent. </P>
      <P>Steele said, "There has been a little relief ... but the =
secondary=20
      schools are quite challenging. We are looking at reform in our =
high=20
      schools very soon."</P>
      <P>Indiana Superintendent of Public Instruction Suellen Reed said =
many=20
      Hoosier schools showed gains in math, while many English scores =
stayed the=20
      same. </P>
      <P>"Though the latest ISTEP+ scores present some signs of =
progress,=20
      particularly in math, the results are decidedly mixed overall," =
Reed.=20
      said.</P>
      <P>"Statewide pass rates for English/language arts are down or =
flat nearly=20
      across the board, an unacceptable reality that should be a call to =
action=20
      for local schools and communities."</P>
