Clarke County students showed progress in English language proficiency, increases in some content mastery scores and advanced academic pathways according to the 2022 College and Career Ready Performance index.
The CCRPI, which is administered by the Georgia Department of Education, investigates student success according to 5 main components: Content Mastery, Progress, Closing Gaps, Readiness, and Graduation Rate (high schools only).
While Clarke County District saw advancements in some data points, such as rates of dual-enrollment and English language proficiency amongst elementary school students, the district trailed behind state averages in literacy rates and content mastery areas in subjects like U.S History.
“We have new baselines for our data,” said CCSD Superintendent Dr. Robbie Hooker. “We know exactly where we need to grow in 2022-23 and beyond. We have a long way to go in terms of catching up with the state and with other school districts in the area, but we are making rigorous instruction a focal point and are committed to providing the resources and support our teachers and students need to achieve those gains.”
