School Goal-Academics

Every student deserves the opportunity to grow, and this year our focus is on making sure our instructional supports are strategically aligned to student need.

Our “D” goal is to increase our Reading M-STEP proficiency from 66% to 69% in the 2026–27 school year.

We already have intentional support in place for our students who need the most intervention. Our bottom-quartile students will continue to receive targeted support through our intervention structures, instructional paraprofessionals, and other resources identified through our data. At the other end of the spectrum, our advanced students are served by them having their own classes, allowing us to provide instruction that continues to challenge and extend their learning.

That brings us to our greatest opportunity for growth: our bubble students.

These are the students who are approaching proficiency and are often just a few skills, strategies, or points away from reaching that benchmark. With the right support at the right time, these students have the potential to make the difference between 66% and 69%.

You can access our Road Map that outlines how we will identify, support, and monitor these students throughout the year by clicking here. We will use multiple data points to identify our bubble students, strategically assign intervention teachers and instructional paraprofessionals where they are needed most, and adjust our support as students demonstrate growth.

The goal is not simply to identify our bubble students—it is to move them forward. We will achieve our destination of 69% by removing roadblocks, providing the right support, and keeping every student moving toward proficiency.
