On Wednesday, Aug. 15, the Tennessee Department of Education
released their statewide evaluation information from the 2018-2019 school year.
Robertson County Schools is proud to announce that 5 district schools were
designated as Reward Schools, which is the highest level of distinction a
school can earn in the state. These RCS schools are:
Coopertown Middle School
Crestview Elementary School
Krisle Elementary School
White House Heritage Elementary
School
White House Heritage High School
Reward schools are those that are
improving overall student academic achievement and student growth for all
students and for student groups, and they are identified annually.
Additionally, the district earned the
distinction of “Advancing,” a higher evaluation than last year’s,
“Satisfactory,” rating.
TVAAS, or Tennessee Value Added
Assessment System, scores were also released.
These scores show the growth that students made based on their peers
across the state and range from 1 to 5.
Robertson County has improved its Overall TVAAS Score from 1 to 3. For its Literacy, the district improved from
1 to 4, and the math improved from 2 to 3.
While the district did have one ATSI
(Additional Target Support and Improvement) designated school, (Springfield
High School) it is important to note that this school still scored a 5 in
Literacy.
Dr. Chris Causey, Director of Schools
commented on the district’s achievement saying, “It is important to celebrate
when the data reflects the hard work of our students, teachers, and staff. Two years ago, we were, ‘In Need of
Improvement.’ We are so proud of the
growth we have seen over the last couple of years, of moving up one designation
level per year. As we begin the new
school-year, this progress gives us a great jump-start to becoming an Exemplary
school system.”
