Findings: Exit exams

All of the early childhood, elementary and special education programs in our evaluation fail to meet this standard because they rely entirely on inadequate state licensing tests to ensure that their graduates know sufficient content in reading, mathematics, the language arts, science and social studies.

All secondary programs only partly meet the standard because they rely on licensing tests in English and mathematics that are adequate and tests in the sciences and social sciences that are not.
