The Massachusetts Comprehensive Assessment System scores released this week reveal conflicting trends in Vineyard schools, where individual classes excelled but schools as a whole did not progress enough to meet new state and federal benchmarks.

Weiss this week called higher cutoff levels one of the reasons the schools were falling short of the targets.
