What Are We Learning?
The ACT Benchmarksare important for ALL Students.
Students who score more than 2 points below the Explore readiness benchmark scores rarely catch up
and often do not graduate.
![Page 31: New High School Graduation Requirements Preparing Tennessees Students for The New Economy.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022081602/55164a5d550346c6758b572c/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
What Are We Learning?
It is important that students catch up as soon as possible.
Students who score more than two points below the Explore readiness
benchmark score should receive extensive interventions.
![Page 32: New High School Graduation Requirements Preparing Tennessees Students for The New Economy.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022081602/55164a5d550346c6758b572c/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
What Are We Learning?Tennessee must more than double the rate at which students earn a postsecondary credential for our
families to be sustained.
Tennessee must develop a variety of seamless paths from the middle
grades through high school to postsecondary completion.
