Superintendent delivers year‑end goals update; directors press for more quantitative fall workshop
Summary
Superintendent Clay Gleason and principals presented year‑end goal updates for each school, noting work on safety, scheduling, MTSS/BARR, math and literacy; directors requested a fall workshop with complete spring assessment data and more specific, measurable goals.
Superintendent Clay Gleason presented consolidated year‑end updates from each school to the RSU 06/MSAD 06 board and said detailed annotated goal documents were included in the meeting packet. The presentation summarized priorities at the high school, middle school and each elementary site, focusing on school safety, scheduling, MTSS/BARR implementation, math and literacy interventions, and chronic absenteeism.
Nut graf: Directors welcomed the breadth of initiatives but several — led by Director Moses — urged clearer, more quantifiable goals and a workshop format in the fall when complete spring assessment data are available so the board can evaluate progress against measurable targets.
Highlights administrators reported: the high school implemented a new semester schedule and a flexible remediation block; the middle school reported 68 students brought forward for Community Connect interventions and is working to standardize intervention tracking; Buxton Center reported chronic absenteeism at 19 percent at the time of the update; Georgie Jack reported multiple family engagement activities and math/literacy interventions; several schools used BARR or MTSS processes to track student supports.
Directors’ response: Director Meserve questioned low turnout for a parent bullying forum at the high school; Director Moses asked for more quantitative, measurable goals and suggested a fall workshop once spring assessment (NEWA) and other data are available; other directors supported the call for specificity and asked administrators to return with precise metrics in the fall.
Ending: Administrators said they will present full year‑end data in the fall wrap‑around review and welcomed a workshop to examine measurable goals with the full dataset.
