Principals and special‑education director report strong attendance and IDEA compliance
Summary
Lakeview reported average daily attendance near 95% and chronic absenteeism under 8%; student-support services reported IDEA 'meets requirements' status, full Medicaid restoration and new TA onboarding supports.
Lakeview principal Lee Tyler told the board that average daily attendance at his campus was just under 95% and that chronic absenteeism was "just under 8 percent," noting improvement over the three‑year average. The principal highlighted that grade‑level reading growth met i‑Ready expectations for most grades and that 58% of students were at or above grade level in reading compared with 24% at the start of the year.
The student‑support‑services director reported that the department earned a federal IDEA determination of "meets requirements," highlighted 100% compliance on certain data reporting, and described improvements including completed annual reviews, a family‑input survey exceeding 100% reporting for one indicator, restored Medicaid billing for the coming year, and a new TA onboarding packet and professional development program. Board members thanked administrators for the work and asked that activity calendars better communicate school events to the board.
