Academic Data Update
- This was an informal board meeting to review academic data and summer school planning, as the regular meeting could not proceed due to a lack of quorum and one board member's unavailability.
- Committee members reviewed the June 2026 Academic report.
- Emma and Rebecca presented preliminary MCAS literacy data showing improved performance with students outperforming state averages on 11 test items across grades 3-5, though official math scores are still pending.
- They shared end-of-year diagnostic test results showing significant growth in literacy and math performance across all grade levels, with particular strength in kindergarten and first grade.
- The team discussed their summer school program planned for July 6-24, which will target students with academic needs using a priority categorization system based on diagnostic test scores and IEP requirements.
