Notable Quotes (2)
The district strategic dashboard is a vehicle to share with our community some key indicators of how well we are meeting the broad school board goals.
I think there's a lot of discouraging information in here, unfortunately... I think what I'm pinning a lot of hope on is improving attendance.
