During a recent government meeting, officials provided updates on the performance of local schools and preparations for the upcoming academic year. Notably, Forest View Elementary School has been classified as low-performing for the past two years, while C.C. Spalding Elementary has faced similar challenges for the last five years. However, both schools have shown improvement and exited low-performing status in the most recent school year.

The meeting also included a comprehensive update on the opening of schools, following a preliminary discussion held on August 8. Presenters outlined key areas such as human resources, student assignments, transportation, and child nutrition services. Dr. Lesane initiated the conversation on human resources, emphasizing the importance of staffing and support as schools prepare to welcome students back.

These updates reflect ongoing efforts to enhance educational outcomes and ensure a smooth transition into the new school year, highlighting the commitment of local officials to address challenges and improve school performance.
