Wildwood principal highlights SEL gains, flags math proficiency decline
Summary
Wildwood Principal Amy Fry praised student belonging and inclusion efforts and outlined interventions, but acknowledged a decline in CAASPP math proficiency over the last three years and said data-format changes complicate year-to-year comparisons.
Principal Amy Fry presented the Wildwood State of the School, saying the school's social-emotional learning indicators are strong — "supportive relationships is at 85%" — and that the inclusion room and math intervention efforts are showing progress. Fry highlighted programs such as the mileage club, a strengthened inclusion space, a new reading/writing curriculum ("fish tank"), and Quest math extension activities intended to replace a previously paid program.
Fry also warned that CAASPP math proficiency has dipped over three years; she said a 2023 test-format change and inconsistent data entry complicate direct comparisons and that the school is focusing on MTSS meetings and targeted intervention pull-ins. Board members asked whether declines relate to curriculum, instruction, or student diagnoses (IEPs/dyslexia); Fry said some overlap exists with IEP students but she could not provide dyslexia-specific counts on the spot. The presentation concluded with plans for parent workshops and follow-up data reporting at the next board meeting.
