Board Chair Green: Are the students taking any practice tests as part as the test prep, or are you looking for what happens to junior year?

CEO Burt:  The students take the practice test in the ACT class.

Board Member Dawson:  How do you feel (Dr. Burt) about the data that you are seeing?  How do you feel about the prospects of meeting the goals that KIPP has set for the year and is there anything that the board can do to support this?

CEO Burt:  Board members can bring in resources to KMPS.  With the data we are using, students have an opportunity to get instruction. They're getting exposed to high-quality instructional resources on a daily basis and they are doing it in a learning environment where they can focus on getting the instruction.

Board Chair Davis:  There are some teachers that are meeting the goals set for the first benchmark.  What are they doing that the other teachers are not doing?

CEO Burt:  You have different examples of teachers that are actually meeting their goals. Those individuals have a different level of training that they've experienced over a period of time as opposed to the ones in their current role.

Dr. Burt is pleased with what he has seen this year as opposed to coming to KIPP in November of 2021. People are taking tri-weekly seriously.  KMPS is averaging 95% participation on those and the same with the benchmark which is a major step in the right direction.  Schools are utilizing data and tracking data.  You see teachers tracking it by their different sections. Tapping into the community block party was a great first step in engaging the community because we really got to get our community back to understanding the importance of kids being at school daily.  Dr. Burt thanked the committee for taking the time and he appreciate the committee and all the work they do on the board. 

Committee Chair Green thanked CEO Burt and Ms. Worles and all the committee members for their time and gave an overview of the Academic Excellence presentation.
