Introductions and School Updates

Testing Results

No kindergarten are now at risk! Much better even though we have 30 more kids than we normally have. Good job kindergarten and the wonderful team that have helped the at risk students to improve.

First grade now has a large group that are now in the advanced group.

Second grade had huge percentage improvements although there are still a large group that are in the high risk.

Third grade made gains and improvements in the advanced, proficient, basic and at risk students.

Fourth grade has lowered the at risk students by 5% and increased the advanced by 8%.

Fifth grade had a huge increase in the advanced students.

More help. We think the no increase is from outside influences. We ask to stay late and come early. The numbers sometimes do not show it, but every student is making gains. We feel good about our students. Even the ones that didn't make benchmark. Some students made over 200% gains. The teachers LOVE the fact we have more help.
