Springfield Schools Superintendent Daniel Warwick is praising the results of the latest MCAS scores for city students.
Warwick says the results show slight increases, but also said there is still work to be done as the local scores are below state averages.
Three Springfield schools were listed as exceeding expectations, 25 met them, 48 schools partially met them and 22 were listed as not meeting expectations.
Two schools were lifted from Level 4 warning status: Chestnut Talented and Gifted School and Milton Bradley Elementary School.
