First-graders in Charleston County received inaccurate scores on their literacy tests last fall because of errors in scoring the exam.
The Post and Courier of Charleston reports (http://bit.ly/xwczzA ) that the test was given to about 3,200 first-graders in the district.
Jean Fleming is the marketing director for the company that developed the tests and said she wasn't able to estimate how many tests were affected.
District officials say all the scores have been corrected. The scores are used to determine which students need to be in a program that helps its weakest readers.
The district says some students may have initially been in the program who didn't need it, but students are evaluated throughout the year.
