IN THE LAST THREE YEARS, WE HAVE UNDERTAKEN A TREMENDOUS EFFORT TO BETTER DOCUMENT THE RATE OF SUCCESS STUDENTS ARE HAVING IN THE CLASSROOM. TO THOSE ENDS, WE HAVE BEEN ABLE TO MONITOR STUDENT PROGRESS VIA THE MUNCIE COMMUNITY SCHOOLS PARENT PORTAL, AND WE ARE ABLE TO TRACK READING AND MATH PROFICIENCY WITHIN THE STAR READING AND STAR MATH PROGRAMS. WITHIN THE FIRST SEMESTER OF USING THE STAR READING AND STAR MATH PROGRAMS, OUR STUDENTS SHOWED AN AVERAGE GAIN OF MORE THAN ONE WHOLE SCHOOL YEAR. FOR THE STUDENTS THAT ENROLL, WE ARE ABLE TO DEMOSTRATE CLEAR CONNECTIONS TO THE MATH AND READING OBJECTIVES THAT ARE BEING MASTERED ON A DAILY AND QUARTERLY BASIS.

ADDITIONALLY, TO SUPPORT THE CONTINUED LEARNING OF STUDENTS DURING SUMMER MONTHS, THE GROWING ENTREPRENEURS PROGRAM WAS CREATED.
