Raymond School District posts improved state report-card score, officials say progress is steady
Summary
District leaders presented a state report-card score of 81.5 ("exceeds expectations"), a five-point increase from the prior comparison period, and outlined priorities for sustaining growth in achievement and target-group outcomes.
District staff presented the state report-card results, explaining that the score is compiled from Forward Exam results, attendance and other indicators. The district's overall score this year was 81.5, which administrators described as "exceeds expectations," and they reported a five-point increase in the two-year comparison.
Presenters highlighted especially strong results on graduation-related indicators and progress for target groups. The district said it ranked above 79% of comparable K-8 schools in achievement and above 64% in growth, and that graduation indicators compared favorably.
