Principals share plans for new year

Principals share plans for new year
Eric Pena addressed the school board in the public comments, urging the district to find a way to pay janitorial and cafeteria staff “a living wage.” He said they “bust their butts,” especially at this time of year for below what the market value of their service is. Later in the meeting, the business manager reviewed next year’s budget with wages expected to rise at least 3%. (Contributed Photo)

Focusing as usual on student outcomes in their July meeting, the Yorktown ISD School Board heard reports from elementary and secondary administrators about the latest test results and plans for the coming school year.

Elementary Principal Stephanie Zigmond reviewed recent testing data for each grade’s English and math. Though all grades showed growth, 2nd grade averages fell short of the goals in both subjects.

To respond to the deficits for that class as incoming 3rd graders, YES will offer extra support for the teachers with improved Really Great Reading (RGR) and Amplify programs.
