Board hears encouraging FastBridge data; district highlights literacy, math and tiered interventions

District leaders presented fall FastBridge screening data and an update on instructional work across elementary, intermediate, middle and high schools. A presenter summarized the fall results by saying the screening "does provide us with an encouraging picture of student performance," noting that in many grade levels more than half of students are demonstrating beginning-of-year proficiency. Staff described using MTSS, PLCs, common formative assessments and targeted interventions to support students who need extra help.
