The overall scores are in for the third year of statewide TNReady testing.

Once again, it's a "mixed bag," according to state officials, with scores up slightly in some subject areas, and down slightly in others.

However, there were sizable drops in high school reading and English scores.

Again this year, there were problems with the testing process. Many districts experienced interruptions with the online tests. State officials have sought a new testing vendor, and have pledged to fix the process in the future.

Statewide averages show a noticeable drop in the number of students who are proficient in English classes, a slight increase in math proficiency, and another sizable decrease is science scores.

Individual school results will be released later this year.
