That tells me that while only 4 percent of this year's senior class read at a level as freshmen, there might be a possibility that many of them read BELOW that. Maybe instead of finding reasons to try and make me look stupid, you could read what was written.

I missed the memo where "Cannot read at grade level" means "can barely read." For all we know, based on what the article said, that could be an 8th grade level instead of a 9th grade level, and the article said nothing about the seniors reading below a freshman level AS SENIORS.
Maybe someone should be tested for reading at their own grade level, where distinctions are made via modifiers.
