Area schools score big on exam - Sacramento News - Local and Breaking Sacramento News Sacramento Bee:

"The achievement gap doesn't seem to be much of a problem at the El Dorado Hills school. All racial subgroups passed the test at a rate of 92 percent and above. African American and Latino students passage rates were within five percentage points of white students on both tests. But not many are students of color. Of the 528 10th-graders who took the math test, for instance, only nine were African American and 31 were Latino."
