District reports early‑childhood enrollment gains but flags math gaps at Lake Ann
Summary
Administration reported overall growth in early‑childhood developmental domains from fall to winter but noted a notable percentage of preschool students at Lake Ann remain below expectations in math and recommended focused support.
District staff reported an overall early‑childhood enrollment and development update while noting uneven results across sites. Executive Assistant/Pupil Accounting Specialist Catina Crossman reported total district enrollment at 1,244 students and Early Childhood Coordinator Melinda Coger provided building‑level counts: Betsie Valley GSRP 5; Homestead Hills Early Childhood 39 (Infant/Toddler 10, Early PreK 6, Strong Beginnings 7, GSRP 16); Lake Ann Early Childhood 57 (Infant 12 full, Toddler/EPK 12 full, GSRP/Tuition 16, GSRP 17). Summer camp projections were provided by age group.
Coger and the District Improvement Team said tuning‑protocol review showed overall growth across developmental domains from fall to winter, but a notable share of preschool students—particularly at Lake Ann—remain below expectations in math. The team recommended continued targeted supports and calibration of behavior‑referral data entry at Homestead Hills to improve early identification and intervention.
