In a recent government meeting, officials celebrated significant educational achievements within the district, announcing a promotion to Level 5 status, up from Level 3 last year. The district's success is attributed to the collaborative efforts of staff, students, leaders, and the community.
Eight schools were recognized for achieving Level 5 status, including JCM Early College and Madison Academic High School, while JCM High School reached Level 4. Notably, the district's graduation rate improved from 90.5% to 93%, surpassing the state average, and the percentage of students deemed \"graduation ready\" increased from 44% to 55%.
Looking ahead, the district is preparing for a stock take process scheduled for December 2nd and 3rd, inviting board members to participate. A significant event is also planned for December 13th, where state and local officials will gather to celebrate new initiatives at STAR Academy, with the Chamber of Commerce in attendance.
The meeting concluded with acknowledgments of board members who received certificates for their achievements in boardmanship, highlighting the recognition of several members at a recent conference in Nashville. The district continues to foster a supportive environment for educational growth, as evidenced by these accomplishments and upcoming events.
