District administrators presented the availability of TCAP Spring 2024 results and briefed trustees on an upcoming change to Tennessee's state report card calculations. The transcript notes that TCAP scores from Spring 2024 "are available at your seat" and that Mrs. Mary Katherine Stigall would provide further analysis. Trustees were told that for the 2025 state report card only grades 3-8 would be included in accountability metrics, but beginning with the 2025-2026 school year all grade levels will be counted in the report card provided the class has more than 20 students.

Why it matters: How the state counts grades on the report card affects how schools are measured for accountability, which can influence resource allocation, interventions and public perception.

What was said and what remains pending: The transcript emphasizes that the district still has "significant work ahead" and that available data should inform both achievement (grade-level proficiency) and growth (individual student progress). Growth scores were still awaiting release at the time of the meeting; the transcript does not include the actual TCAP score totals or school-level performance breakdowns.

Next steps: Mrs. Mary Katherine Stigall was identified to provide further insight and analysis; the transcript does not include her analysis or any formal action taken at the meeting on accountability or program changes.
