Miss Greer, the district elementary supervisor for data, presented final counts for the 2024–25 testing year and compared district success rates (students who met or exceeded expectations) with state averages. She highlighted district growth measures and noted particular concern in U.S. history and some secondary mathematics courses.

"We did very well in lots of areas... but we are getting closer and closer to that state success rate," Miss Greer said, explaining the district’s data charts and that TBAS growth measured a composite of 5, the highest growth designation. She said state proficiency goals aim for roughly 70% success over the next five years and described strategies the district will use to reach them: benchmark testing, RTI interventions, professional development on standards alignment, PLCs and additional collaboratives at schools.

Board members followed with a school-level spotlight from Miss Gere, a principal, who reported benchmark gains across fall, winter and spring, outlined targets (for example, raising second-grade proficiency from 61% to 65%), described newly expanded morning and afternoon tutoring, and emphasized family engagement through events like Parent University and the use of ClassDojo for communication.

The board did not take formal votes tied to testing at the meeting but discussed aligning the strategic plan and board goals with classroom- and district-level interventions. Trustees asked for continued monitoring and for report cards that will be released in December to show growth metrics.
