FIve of the seven schools made AYP as well, with Blue Ridge missing AYP by only 0.7% for economically disadvantaged in readng.  Hardin Reynolds Memorial School missed AYP in Reading and Math for economically disadvantaged.

ALL schools are expected to achieve full accreditation again.  The state benchmarks, considered one of the toughest in the nation, include testing in reading, math, science, and social studies at various grade levels. 

CONGRATULATIONS TO ALL OF THE STUDENTS, STAFF, PARENTS, AND COMMUNITY AND THANK YOU FOR YOUR SUPPORT!!!!  WHEN WE WORK TOGETHER WE MAKE A DIFFERENCE.
