Question 29 - Reading Practice Test for the ParaPro Assessment

The word projections, as it is used in the passage, most nearly means ____.

Based on economic projections, the school board anticipates that tax funds will need to be allocated differently next school year. Rather than help determine creative solutions to increase revenue, two of the school board leaders have refused to participate in discussions with the schools’ principals and teacher representatives about how to close the economic gap. As local business leaders who have never set foot inside a classroom since their own graduations, it seems they don’t understand the classroom teachers’ daily struggles with supplying students with the tools necessary to access a quality education and the costs associated with that. They should be voted out in the next election.

Hint

Look for words like most nearly, most likely, usually, and probably in questions. They indicate that you should look for the best answer, not necessarily the only possible one.
