Levy County School Board celebrates Cedar Key's A grade and district progress

In a recent meeting of the Levy County School Board, members expressed pride in the academic achievements of local schools, particularly highlighting Cedar Key's continued success in maintaining an 'A' grade. Board member Miss Campbell emphasized the hard work and dedication of teachers and staff, noting that the success is not merely about meeting numerical targets but fostering a culture of learning and empowerment for every student.

The board acknowledged the challenges faced by schools, including the recent job loss of a key migrant program representative, Lisa Custer, which raised concerns about the support for migrant students in the area. The program, managed by Alachua County, is set to remain operational until July 31 for administrative purposes, but further details on its future remain uncertain.

Miss Campbell and other board members, including Miss Baxter, praised the collaborative efforts of teachers, staff, and the community in creating a supportive environment for students. They highlighted the importance of maintaining a focus on classroom experiences and the individual needs of students, rather than solely on performance metrics.

The meeting underscored the board's commitment to ensuring that every decision made reflects the goal of enhancing student learning and support. As the school year approaches, the board aims to continue fostering a positive educational atmosphere across all schools in Levy County.
