Administrators report improved attendance, literacy gains and new grants
Summary
District administrators reported a 94.3% average daily attendance rate, literacy and PBIS gains, and several grants (including a $10,000 Adirondack Foundation literacy grant and a $30,000 University of Kansas award) to support next yearprogramming.
District administrators gave year-end reports showing improved attendance and literacy outcomes and described grant-funded programming for the coming year. "Average daily attendance rate this school year is 94.3%," an administrator reported, noting that attendance remains above recent years and well under the national chronic-absenteeism average.
Presenters described declines in disciplinary referrals, successful literacy interventions (reported growth exceeding program expectations), and planned summer and after-school enrichment (over 200 students met 15-plus hours of out-of-school academic enrichment this year). Administrators also listed several grants: a $10,000 Adirondack Foundation grant to promote literacy and a $30,000 award from the University of Kansas program; these funds will support family literacy nights, summer programming and capacity-building.
