At the June Governing Board meeting, the Board received the year-end update on progress toward achieving Academic Goal #2 and interim goals 2.1 and 2.2.

Fifth Grade AASA Math Proficiency

Academic Goal #2

The percent of fifth-grade students who score at Proficiency or higher on AASA Math will increase from 11% in Aug. 2023 to 45% by Aug. 2028.

Data is trending correctly, but off track.

Fifth graders showed a modest increase in proficiency from the previous fifth-grade cohort on AASA Math. This goal is still off track according to AASA and Star Math results, despite slight improvements in math proficiency in grades 3-5.

Third Grade STAR Math Proficiency

Interim Goal #2.1

The percentage of students performing at Proficiency or Higher on the third-grade STAR Math Assessment will increase from 29.8% to 36% by May 2026.

Although progress was made, this goal was not met.

At the start of the school year, third-grade students were performing at 24.5% proficiency on the assessment. At the time of the December benchmark testing, they were performing at 25.8% proficiency. They continued to show progress on May's assessment, reaching 27.4% proficiency; however, they did not achieve the 36% goal.

Interim Goal #2.2

The percentage of students performing at minimally proficient on the third-grade STAR Math Assessment will decrease from 48.8% to 40% by May 2026.

This interim goal is off track.

At the start of the school year, third-grade students were performing at 55.3% minimal proficiency on the assessment. At the time of the December benchmark testing, they showed improvement to 51.5% minimal proficiency. They continued to show progress on May's assessment, performing at 49.9% minimal proficiency; however, they did not achieve the 40% goal.
