The national norm group has 25 percent of the students in the upper quarter, 50 percent in the two middle quarters and 25 percent in the lower quarter. This distribution is the same for the norm group on all tests. Dr. Brouillet noted that for the 1978 reading vocabulary and comprehension results combined, 33 percent of Washington's fourth graders scored in the upper one-quarter compared to 25 percent in the national norm group. The three-year average indicates that 32.1 percent of Washington's students scored in the upper quarter. By contrast, only 13.0 percent of Washington fourth graders scored in the lower quarter in 1978 with' a three-year average of 15.0 percent in the lower quarter. Spelling, punctuation and capitalization skills, and grammar and sentence expression are tested in the language arts portion of the CTBS.

In Shelton and in Hoodsport WE'RE ALL THE BANK YOU'LL EVER NEED i Traffic safety discussed The Mason County Traffic Safety Committee discussed the dangerous condition of Highway 3 at its meeting last week. Laurel Nelson, a member of the committee, expressed concern about the highway as a safety hazard. Jim Leitch, from the county engineer's office, told the group the state has plans for the improvement of the highway including relocation of one section. The first part of the work, he said, is about ready to go out for bids. The highway will still follow its present route along Oakland Bay except for the relocation portion. The committee questioned whether or not this will correct the hazardous conditions. The group agreed to invite a member of the Highway District 3 staff to meet with them to discuss this. The Mason County Engineering Department submitted proposed traffic safety projects for the coming year which were approved.. They include providing milepost markers, $2,500; improving accident location records, $1,500; inventory of hazardous locations, $3,500; install bridge delineators, $10,000; and upgrade signs, $5,000. The committee will study the proposals to put them in priority order. Also discussed was the hazardous condition on Olympic Highway North in the vicinity of K Street• The committee agreed left turn lanes and through lanes are needed at the intersection. Coordinator Mede McNeil will meet with city public works and law enforcement officials to discuss what can be done.
