Mosaic and Rogers principals report rising achievement and student engagement
Summary
Principals from Mosaic and Rogers Elementary highlighted growth in attendance, reading and math benchmarks, project-based-learning expansion and community engagement; principals described progress in reducing students multiple levels behind in reading.
Principals from Mosaic Elementary and Rogers Elementary briefed the board on school performance, programming and community engagement. Scott Clark, Mosaic principal, described project-based-learning integration with English language arts and implementation of Building Thinking Classrooms strategies in mathematics; Mosaic’s enrollment was reported at 266 and staff reported that nearly 88% of students are performing at grade level in ELA with more than 85% at grade level in math on spring I‑Ready benchmarks.
Rogers principal Patrick Kenoy reported expanded student opportunities — 15 clubs district-funded for K–5 — and said attendance has improved from a three‑year proportional attendance of 84.3% to 94.7% last year. Kenoy said reading gains at Rogers reduced the share of students two or more grade levels behind from 15.4% to 3% year over year, and math improvements showed similar reductions for students starting multiple grade levels behind.
Both principals described ongoing professional development, use of PLCs (professional learning communities) to guide instruction and intervention, and programs to build belonging (Rogers’ Inside Out theme and Mosaic’s “learn, grow, transform” pillar). Board members congratulated staff and noted community recognition of improved outcomes. The presentations were informational; no board actions were required.
