School leadership reviewed the district's annual accountability report and explained how Tennessee letter grades are calculated.

Administration emphasized that the published report is retrospective (the data presented cover tests taken earlier in the school year) and described the components that determine a school's letter grade: 50% achievement, 40% growth and 10% growth for the lowest 25% cohort. The district said it has been named an "advancing district" for the second consecutive year.

Key metrics the board heard:
- 18 of 27 grade-level/test groupings improved year over year.
- Algebra I district-wide proficiency improved more than 10%, placing the district above the state average in that subject.
- Three schools received a growth score of 5 (Dibrell, Warren County Middle School and Warren County High School); other schools were noted at 4 or 3 in growth measures.

The presenter cautioned that proficiency percentages still show many students are not yet proficient (for example a cited 44–45% proficiency means more than half the tested group did not reach proficiency) and reiterated the district goal that every classroom reach 50% proficiency. The board did not take an action on letter grades at the meeting; letter grades were scheduled for release by the Tennessee Department of Education the next week.
