The national percentile norm is another means of evaluating students' academic ability. The national percentile is posted at fifty percent. 98% of Woodcrest students scored above this national average.

The average score of a Woodcrest student in Grades K-5 was 88% on the national percentile norm for the Basic Battery. The Basic Battery includes all subtests in Reading, Math, and Language Arts. This means that for every 100 students tested, our Woodcrest students, on the average, scored higher than 88 students out of 100.
