6. Superintendent Report
Discussion:
We have successfully completed our School Administration Yearly Audit, which will be presented in January. Mrs. Harrison has been diligently working on improving scores, resulting in significant increases in letter grades across all classrooms. For Middle School, we have a D-Plan in place to track data, along with small assemblies to enhance engagement. High School has seen a reduction in absenteeism. We attended the OCSA Legislative Conference to stay informed about upcoming issues. The construction update includes painting and finalizing the countertops. Thanks to the Coat Donation, we were able to purchase 26 coats for our students. |
