While Verona is putting the finishing touches on a five-year plan for the public schools, Montclair’s superintendent has given her board of education specific goals for students during the 2013-2014 and 2014-2015 school years.
According to BaristaKids, Superintendent Penny MacCormack wants to have 80% of Montclair’s K-12 students show progress in the district’s quarterly assessments in reading and writing, math, social studies, and science. She wants students in grades three to eight scoring at the proficient or advanced proficiency range on the NJASK in language arts literacy and mathematics by June 2014. She also wants 80% of third grade students to score at or above the effective range in classroom management, instruction, monitoring assessment and follow-up, and family/community outreach by June 2015.
