Dysart Unified School District celebrated a remarkable achievement at the November 14 Governing Board meeting, revealing that for the first time, all K-8 schools received A or B letter grades, with zero schools rated C. Superintendent Dr. Longoria presented the district's final official labels for the 2023-2024 school year, highlighting that 14 schools earned an A and 6 received a B.
The positive trend continued at the high school level, where for two consecutive years, all high schools in the district have maintained an A rating. Dr. Longoria noted that this consistent performance underscores the district's commitment to educational excellence.
In a detailed breakdown, Dr. Longoria shared that over the past two years, three K-8 schools transitioned from an A to a B, while 12 maintained their ratings, and four improved their labels, with one school even jumping two letter grades. The district's overall performance remains strong, with comparisons showing that five surrounding districts also achieved A ratings, while five others received B ratings.
The board members expressed their excitement over the news, emphasizing the significance of having no C-rated schools and the overall improvement in educational standards within the Dysart district. This achievement not only reflects the hard work of educators and students but also sets a positive tone for future initiatives aimed at maintaining and enhancing academic performance.
