Student Performance

Student performance has improved over the last decade with outstanding results achieved in reading. Elementary reading scores at the Carson Elementary and Stevenson Elementary have been some of the best in the region. The district’s commitment to evaluate student growth is reflected in the use of MAP (Measures of Academic Performance) Levels Test.  Students are tested grades 2-10 in the fall and spring of each year.  As a result, student achievement can be documented clearly and programs can be adjusted to achieve excellence for all students.
