​We need to make sure that our decisions, policies, and practices result in higher growth and student achievement for all students.  

​Our students and teachers need the resources and supports to tackle these challenges.

We need to address:

Student SAT scores have been declining since 2017

Only 12% to 18% of students with an IEP can meet or exceed SAT expectations

Only 7% to 15%  of all students can meet or exceed expectations on the DLM-AA tests

Only 29.4% of eighth graders are passing Algebra 1

Only 43.35 of children in Early Education Special Education exit the program with age-expected knowledge and skills
