The improiements have shown up in five grade levels. We know this is the direct result of our teams who have been working hard to engage students at an individual level. In terms of budget,we have all been asked to do more with less, but we continueto stay focusedon students and are proud to be one of the few school districtsacross our state that did not cut student days. Un fortunately pur funding issues will continue to be a challengeas we start moving toward the 2011-12 schoolyear.
