An examination of English learners' college readiness in grade 9 as measured by the PSAT 8/9

Harris, Tonny, Jr. 01 January 2024 (has links) (PDF)
This research study addressed a gap in literature regarding academic college readiness of English learners (ELs). The Preliminary Scholastic Aptitude Test 8/9 (PSAT 8/9) was utilized to analyze the college readiness of English learners (ELs) in one large urban school district (LUSD) in Central Florida. The study analyzed if there were differences in achievement scores in mathematics and evidence-based reading and writing (EBRW) scores of Grade 9 ELs, non-ELs, and ELs with disabilities. Student Grade 9 PSAT scores from the 2016-2017 school year through the 2021-2022 school year were examined (N = 53,105). Results from the study demonstrated differences in the college readiness of ELs and non-EL Grade 9 students with non-ELs demonstrating higher achievement. Results of this study can be used by comparable school districts to provide earlier intervention and additional supports for ELs support in the development of academic college readiness.
