Summary

Presenters described multi-year continuation with the Connecticut RISE Network and reported gains for 9th-grade promotion rates at Hill House and Cross Hill after implementing RISE supports and data access.

The committee reviewed a multi-year renewal of the district’s partnership with the Connecticut RISE Network. A presenter described increased access to RISE’s data hub and said Hill House’s 9th-to-10th grade progression rose from the fifties to over 80% since joining the network; Cross Hill’s 9th-grade promotion improved from 78% to 90% after a year of partnership. The presenter framed the data access as enabling teachers to act on classroom-level information.

Committee members expressed support and had no additional questions; the item will be forwarded to the full board. The presenter did not state a full name during remarks and was introduced on the agenda as either "Mr. Brown" or "Dr. Billing," so the public transcript does not clearly associate those names with the speaking participant.
