More than 80,000 fifth graders and 60,000 eighth graders statewide face possible retention due to STAAR failures under a social promotion ban. In Ector County Independent School District, preliminary results lag state averages in all tested areas with 35 percent of fifth graders failing reading and 34 percent math, while eighth graders show 25 percent and 29 percent failures respectively. Interim Superintendent H T Sanchez remains encouraged by a revamped curriculum and the chance to retake tests, noting many students are within a few questions of passing.
