Academic Awards Given

Click for larger image
An
academic awards presentation was held on Tuesday, March 16th
at the Harlan County Board of Education prior to the regular
monthly board meeting.
Awards were presented for
academic leadership, attainment of established district benchmarks,
as well as recognition for the attainment of Adequate Yearly
Progress in regard to NCLB.
Six individual academic plaques will be presented in subject areas
that recorded an academic index over 100: Cawood
Elem. Science 106.3 Green Hills
Elem. Science 106.67 Rosspoint
Elem. Reading 100.78
Middle School SS 101.87 Wallins
Elem. Science 111.36,
Middle School Science 109.99
Five schools were presented plaques
acknowledging the “whole school” effort required to attain the
designation of making “adequate yearly progress” in regard to NCLB.
These five schools are Cawood Elementary, Green Hills
Elementary, James A. Cawood Elementary, Rosspoint Elementary, and
Wallins Elementary. The District Academic
Leadership award was presented to both Rosspoint Elementary as well
as Wallins Elementary.
*In the past, the Academic Leadership
Award has been presented to the school with the highest
accountability index score.
Due to the states transition in the assessment process,
Accountability Index scores were not calculated by the Kentucky
Department of Education.
An independent group, the Kentucky Association of School
Councils developed a weighted formula and calculated an overall
academic index for all Kentucky schools which gave Rosspoint the
highest overall district academic index; however, KDE recommended
that an equally weighted scale be used if districts wished to
calculate an overall academic index for their schools.
Using the equally weighted formula Wallins Elementary posted
the highest academic index.
District leadership feels it is appropriate to acknowledge
both of these outstanding schools.
The Harlan County High School Future Educators of America
participated in Read Across America for Dr. Suess’ Birthday.
The FEA read to students and completed Dr. Suess activities
at James A. Cawood Elementary.
