The Big Idea – Every Story Matters

Box plots and histograms help us see how test scores are spread out. They show whether some groups score much higher or lower than others. These visual tools make performance gaps clear. God desires fairness in opportunities so every student can thrive.

Standardized Test Scores:

• Group A: 70, 72, 74, 76, 78
• Group B: 55, 60, 62, 65, 68
• Group A Median = 74
• Group B Median = 62
• Histograms would show Group A scores clustered higher than Group B.

This reveals a performance gap that schools must address.
