Summary

The district’s integrated programs presentation showed gains in freshman on‑track and graduation rates and outlined the student‑investment account and other grant totals; staff said they are closing gaps among focal groups through targeted interventions.

At the Sept. 8 meeting the district’s integrated‑programs presenter reviewed four state grant pools and local results tied to those funds. Staff said the student‑investment account is roughly $2,700,000 this year, high‑school‑success funding is about $785,000, early‑literacy funds are about $206,000, and a small early‑indicators allocation is around $8,000. The director described modest gains: 9th‑grade on‑track improved by about 1.8 percentage points and focal groups rose 2.5%.

Staff tied those improvements to targeted freshman‑success classes, strengthened RTI groups and after‑school connection activities. The presenter also said the district’s graduation rate improved by 1.9 percentage points and the high school’s rate was reported near 95.5% in local remarks; staff noted that small cohorts make percentage swings sensitive to a handful of students.
