Administration presents formative assessment results, outlines reading interventions

Cypress-Fairbanks ISD Board of Trustees · April 11, 2025

Summary

Dr. Gory presented data on strategic goals 5 and 6 showing groups of students below 'approaches' and highlighted interventions including tutoring, small‑group instruction, Saturday camps and one‑on‑one support; district will provide cumulative results in June.

Dr. Gory presented formative assessment data tied to the district strategic plan goals 5 and 6, focusing on students in grades 1–5 who did not meet prior end‑of‑year reading benchmarks. She explained the charts show students who did not meet the STAR‑ELA 'approaches' standard and mirrored reading‑mastery scores by grade and said the district aims for 90% of targeted groups to meet a specified mastery threshold by 2029.

On interventions, Dr. Gory described a range of supports: additional tutoring, Saturday camps, small‑group instruction, targeted 'closing the gap' time, and one‑on‑one teacher time. She said the district tracks individual students to accelerate progress and will provide cumulative year‑end data in June. Dr. Gory cited a reduction in a first‑grade subgroup to 142 students at the lowest mirror level since the December report and agreed to share the detailed statistics with trustees.

Trustees praised campus efforts and urged community volunteers to help with tutoring and supports; a trustee urged the district to share the specific counts and chart changes at the June update.
