A Message from Principal Montgomery

 

I want to simply say “Hello” and pass on information about the recent press release regarding Spring Ridge and our Adequate Yearly Progress (AYP) status. Consider our key data points:

The bottom line is:
  • We solved our proficiency issues in reading regarding AYP
  • We solved our proficiency issues in mathematics regarding AYP
  • We solved our proficiency issues with attendance
  • We are managing student behaviors effectively to decrease our student referrals

 We made Adequate Yearly Progress for the first time ever!    Without question, this is significant! We will continue to monitor individual, class, and grade level data so that we maintain and then increase our gains in reading and math for the 2008-2009 school year. I am so proud to be a member of this learning community!
