Board hears one-year turnaround in math scores; students place at regional meet
Summary
Staff reported notable math gains, saying 11th-grade pass rates rose from 0% last year to at-or-above the state average this year, and noted success at a regional math relay where the district placed second in team competition.
Staff member (S1) told the board that the district has seen substantial progress in math after focused work on PLCs and curriculum adjustments. "At 11th grade, last year, we were 0% passed, and we think this year, we're at or above the state average in 1 year of turnaround," S1 said.
Board members highlighted the district's efforts to support accelerated pathways: exit testing and schedule changes are enabling some 8th graders to move directly into geometry rather than repeat Algebra I. Participants also cited success in extracurricular competitions as evidence of increased student confidence and capability.
