Summary

At a workshop demonstration, a consultant used mid‑year MAP data to show the 2nd‑grade reading progress measure at a 66% target and highlighted bright spots (pre-K gains) and areas for growth (students with IEPs).

During a monitoring example the consultant presented data on 2nd‑grade reading and a specific goal progress measure drawn from mid‑year MAP information. The consultant stated the district’s measured marker was at 66% and said that, on that indicator, "we have met our target." The presenter also highlighted bright spots — for example, pre‑K students showing larger gains and "70% of elementary schools have maintained achievement for three years."

Trustees asked technical and tactical clarifying questions about the data source, which students were included, and how growth was measured. The presenter repeatedly urged concise, visual slides so the public and trustees could quickly see status and next steps. The board agreed to use these focused reports to surface both successes and students or campuses needing additional support.
