CMS performed higher than district avg in all areas; (State was 54%);. Our ELA learning gains also out performed state and district including our lowest 25%, however, we feel this is an area we can improve on and this will be part of our academic goal this year.. In math, we also increased by more points than the year prior (10) and out performed state and district in prof, gains, and lowest 25%. Year prior, we were on par in science, this year we outperformed and SS, we were about the same in increases. So, each year, we outperform dist/state avg and we are also increased the degree to which we do this each year. So what are our goals for FY19?
