Administrators presented the district’s 2024–25 Illinois Report Card at the Nov. 17 meeting, reporting that Stark County’s campuses received Commendable designations. Principal Megan McGann said the district showed growth and singled out a renewed focus on chronic absenteeism at the junior high and high school campuses and expanded teacher support practices.
"Academic Interventionist Sara Nowlan has been leading our High School Problem Solving meetings," McGann said, describing a cross-staff MTSS approach that aims to identify and support students earlier. The board voted 7-0 to accept the report card as presented (motion by Mrs. Price, second by Mr. Richards).
Administrators highlighted improved staff retention, a student-to-staff ratio of about 10:1, and planned follow-up work including Teacher Quarterly Data Meetings and recognition events for ILMEA qualifiers and other student honors.
