EDITORIALS Failure As parents and educators alike come to terms with the disappointing test results of the past year's eighth grade on a state-mandated assessment, it's important to remember one thing: There's plenty of blame to go around.

Broadway. Unfortunately for the score keepers and statisticians among us, Clark beat the odds this year, and not in a good way. The state wants middle schools to have a minimum 75 percent passing rate, where students are either "proficient" or "advanced proficient" in basic math and language skills. Clark just missed that mark, coming in with a passing rate of 72.8 percent. The blame game started almost immediately. When the Board of Education discussed the situation June 24, school Photo By Joseph Sorrentino administrators were quick to blame parents. Parents since have started to blame the administration.
