Superintendent reviews grading law change, enrollment and safety updates
Summary
Superintendent reported on a new state grading law (removing district grading floor so missed assignments may receive a 0), shared assessment upticks in ELA/math/science, and detailed community outreach and safety steps including monthly superintendent socials and a bus badge program still awaiting delivery.
The superintendent reviewed several administrative items including an instructional guide distributed to teachers, state changes to grading law and preliminary assessment data. On grading, administration said the district’s prior grading floor is no longer in place and that "if they do not turn it in on the due date... they will be given a 0," reflecting state law; the district retained limited medical‑note exceptions for excused absences.
The superintendent and other administrators outlined community engagement plans (community forums in Gaffney and Blacksburg, a superintendent 'social' on the second Saturday of each month, and a CCSD 101 deep‑dive program). Operations reported 71% of capital projects had POs issued or were complete, transportation pickup times had improved this week, and a student bus‑badge ridership system had been ordered but not yet delivered. The superintendent also reported current enrollment at 7,477 students and previewed further FY27 budget reporting after the October audit.
