Stroudsburg football fell short in battle of explosive offenses in district quarters

WHITEHALL — It’s hard to look at the positives immediately after a loss that, at least on paper, was by a large margin. Stroudsburg High School football is feeling that now after a 45-28 loss to Whitehall in the District 11 6A quarterfinals Friday, Nov. 6. But what the score doesn’t say is how, for most of the game, the Mounties went toe-to-toe with arguably the best offense in the EPC, led by league MVP Tanner Dogmanits and a host of All-League players. And although the Zephyrs pulled away late, Jim Miller was proud of how his team competed until the end. “The thing I love about football is there were ups and we had downs,” Miller said. “We had the lead, we lost the lead, but they never quit. Even when Whitehall got up two scores, our guys never quit, and that's all you can ask of them.” Whitehall got on the board first with a field goal, but Stroudsburg was the first team to find the end zone with a fullback dive with Kevin Rodriguez. The Zephyrs retook the lead late in the first quarter and entered the second with a 10-7 advantage. Then, Jackson Mitchell, who eclipsed

Philadelphia state test scores are months late. Now state officials want to change the cut scores.

Keep Chalkbeat’s valuable education coverage at the top of your feeds by clicking here and checking the box next to our name. Pennsylvania state officials have proposed changing how they score students’ performance on state math and reading tests, making it easier for students to be considered “advanced.” The proposal , which Pennsylvania Department of Education officials shared with the state’s Board of Education Thursday, would have implications for how the state measures student achievement and schools’ success, and would apply to tests students took months ago. It comes after months of uncertainty over delayed test results in Philadelphia, where families and teachers have repeatedly asked officials to release the scores they usually get in August. State officials acknowledged the department’s cut score review contributed to the wait. “This delayed reporting. It’s not great timing,” Brian Campbell, director of the Department of Education’s bureau of curriculum, assessment, and instruction, told board members Thursday. But he said the state was overdue in updating score thresholds set more than a decade ago, and this would create “a new baseline.” Students take state tests every spring to evaluate whether
